If you've watched hush or panic room you will know what i mean in the title, although this movie isnt as good as those two its actually not that bad.

For me there could have been a bit more tension build up, but still it was enough to keep me interested throughout, the only minus for me is that the main character sophie gets annoying at times when people are trying there best to help her, you'll know what i mean if you watch it.

Ok all in all this is one of those movies you'll only watch once and most likely forget about, but with no regret of watching it.

6/10 from me.

This movie has all the perfect ingredients for a Friday night, home invasion movie. Suspense, gripping at times, decent cast and a unique premise... a blind girl cat sitting, is unfortunately in a house which is targeted for robbery.

I've seen some reviews, where some people didn't like the lead character. But I thought she did fine, she can act fine. And came across believable as a blind person.

Overall, entertaining popcorn movie, which ticks boxes.

In spite of all the bad reviews I decide to watch his film anyway. What a mistake! I've seen thousands of films during my lifetime and I've never seen a film with such an unlikable protagonist. The main character in this film has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. She treats everyone including family, friends and strangers alike with equal disrespect and contempt. Yes I realize she's blind, But that's not excuse for her crappy behavior. I was actually rooting for her to be killed off that's how bad she was. I don't know if her character was written this way or if the actor playing us just that obnoxious. Stay away from this film.

Modernized rehash of better films , even so , It would be o' k ,if only the main character wasn't so annoying and unpleasant. All gimmick about blind or deaf people in life or death situations based on the incredible and scary vulnerability , when you try to put yourself in their shoes . Here , the heroine is so stubborn , dumb and rude that you feel just kind of disgust , hence this film doesn't' work...

I gave 2 stars for the veteran. The rest of the movie was insufferable and I only kept watching to see if the lead got killed. Even the thieves were more likeable, especially the poor guy with the drill. I would rather watch a movie about him.

Yes I'm aware that grammatically my summary line does not make much sense. But I hope and believe you are aware of the history of that saying ... although I am using this especially for the main actress/character here obviously.

And while the movie seems quite standard, there are a few twists that really got to me. Well written and acted, moral compass aside, this is quite the fun little thriller. The overall conclusion may be one that is not too hard too guess, but it is the ride that is exciting ... again well done and a nice little independent movie for any horror/thriller fan.

Have seen worse.. The lead wasn't likable,believable or where you felt any sympathy for someone blind.

Frankly she was an entitled scammer with attitude,over her circumstances of disability.

It was a very simplistic storyline,which is nothing new or special.

The movie has a short running time that can be a plus or minus,depending on how they want you invested into the characters & so forth.

Although the(See for Me)app concept was interesting,not like that's Innovative technology to make the story greater.

The actors to acting was average,cinematography was ok.. Bottom line the lead needs to stick with voice work,she just isn't a believable actress.

This movie had numerous clichés,plotholes & stereotypes of what a blind person can/cannot do.

Nothing worth a rewatch but if bored & nothing else is on,than it's a time killing popcorn flick.

If you're watching it for Kim Coates.. It's mostly his voice on a phone during some parts,than a little of him as the movie is nearing its running end.

An effective little thriller with good use of certain innovative mobile apps. Randall Okta brought convenient plot for home-invasion standards though wasn't without its flaws. Kudos to Skyler Davenport who's blind in real life and gave sensible performance here.

"Hush"! I heard a better version is on Netflix. And "Don't Breathe" on...any other platform.

There. I gave you my recommendation. See "Don't Breathe" or "Hush" instead of "See for Me." But, if you feel the need for a triple feature some night, fine, you can include this. But, only because I can't think of another movie this is hyper-similar to.

Our incredibly unlikeable hero of the story is blind and somehow always manages to get around an unfamiliar house where she's cat-sitting and not be seen, for the most part, by three robber intruders. Even more unbelievable, she's holding her phone with the flashlight on while she's talking with a "See for Me" video chat service that helps blind people see in unfamiliar locations. And the robbers still can't track down this victim.

The person on the other end of the "See for Me" service is the only likable character and totally reminded me of Brooke Langton way back on Melrose Place. Not to mention, the lead totally reminded me of a much younger Sarah Polley. But, that's neither here nor there.

This plot is absurd and unrealistic at best, and littered with way too many plot holes at worst. And that lead character we're supposed to root for is so bad and unpleasant, you really only root for Not-Brooke Langton and she's thousands of miles away.

This is on Shudder and I love Shudder. But this REALLY feels like a D-grade Netflix thriller.

Final Thoughts: Yeah, I have to go here: Like the blind lead, don't see this movie.

I didnt expect much from this movie, but it really pleasantly surprised me! It will at no time bore you and shows a very different kind of "blind person" than certainly I have seen in movies in the past. Its a very refreshing touch on the subject and while this movie doesnt re-invent the wheel, it does a lot of things right, even though it has minor flaws, and sure you see the ending coming half way through the movie, BUT that surprisingly doesnt ruin the experience AND I do want to point out how well the Chekhov's guns are executed!

Jump on for the ride and enjoy a fantastic performance by the female lead, who actually is blind herself.

Yes, it's formulaic and generic, but for most of it, it does so well that you almost forget that, being as efficient as Hush is. The final act is a bit too much and repetitive and I believe that with 10 less minutes, I would go for a 3.5 on this film.

Okita is a director that I will take a closer look in the future, especially if he is in something as a thriller or horror. This guy can definitely create tension!

Greetings again from the darkness. For those of us who enjoy the burst of adrenaline provided by thrillers, the premise of a blind person in peril is something we've seen a few other times, including WAIT UNTIL DARK (1967) with Audrey Hepburn, SEE NO EVIL (1971) with Mia Farrow, BLINK (1993), and the more recent DON'T BREATHE (2016, 2021) series with Stephen Lang. Director Randall Okita, working from a screenplay by Adam Yorke and Tommy Gushue, manages to use modern technology to provide a twist to a familiar set-up.

When we first see Sophie (the feature film debut of Skyler Davenport), she's getting caught by her mom sneaking out of the house. Now this wouldn't be that unusual were it not for the fact that Sophie is blind ... a degenerative disease robbing her of her dream of making the Olympic ski team. She is independent to the point of stubborn, and has found a way to supplement her house/cat-sitting gigs with the help of her only friend Cam (Keaton Kaplan). Homeowner Debra (Laura Vandervoot) greets her at the sprawling, snow-covered remote mansion Sophie has been hired to 'watch'.

Of course we know where this is headed, because who is more vulnerable than a blind girl alone in the house (with a cat)? The twist here is an app recommended by Sophie's mom. It's called "See For Me" and it's a way for someone to assist a blind person by using the smart phone camera. Sophie is hooked up with Kelly (Jessica Parker Kennedy, "Black Sail"), a military veteran whose expertise at video game invasions will come in handy. Kelly is direct and efficient in her instructions to Sophie - from helping her jiggle open a sliding glass door to evading the three men who break into the house while she's asleep.

The cat and mouse between Sophie and the intruders provides the necessary tension, and the main twists involve Kelly on the app and Sophie as a tough-to-like person. This is no angelic type that you'd like to hug and protect, in fact, she's often abrasive to the point of rude. But most importantly, she's tough and strong-minded. The interaction between Sophie and Kelly is the most interesting, and there's also a sequence with a police officer that plays like a chain of events that could happen. Kim Coates adds a nice touch in his role ... you might recall him as the drifter in WATERWORLD (1995).

By opening the film with "Introducing Skyler Davenport", we know right away who the film belongs to. Skyler is a non-binary actor whose adult-onset vision impairment make the performance that much more impressive. Skyler is attempting to transition from a successful voice acting career into an on screen one, and this is a terrific start. We do wish the film had taken a few more risks, rather than sticking with some of the old stand-bys. The opportunities were there, but the punches weren't thrown. Still, for a January thriller, director Okita's film holds its own.

In select theaters and On Demand beginning January 7, 2022.

I was pleasantly surprised after clicking on this by accident. Good story, well acted, with a neat twist at the end. I'd watch it again. It has a unique spin on the "coming from inside the house" trope. Not a bad way to spend 90 minutes.

This movie is like a Walmart version of "Hush" (except the main character is blind instead of deaf). It follows a young blind woman as she deals with three intruders.

Unlike a lot of the other reviewers, I actually like the fact that the main character is unlikable and morally ambiguous. It offers something new to the genre. If they made her the typical "good guy," it would be a derivative story. That being said, they did go a little too far by making her quite annoying; again, I'm not opposed to some moral ambiguity, but they could've giver her some more redeeming characteristics. With the way it's written, it's kind of hard to root for anyone.
