Catastrophic thriller letdown

Rating: 5/10 (21 December 2018)

I was kind of excited when I saw the trailer with Bullock, but it ended up being what I'd describe as a more visual version of The Happening. They still focus a lot on crazy tree shaking for effects, but then they introduce the people that try to force you to open your eyes and that creates some violent encounters.
All in all it's fairly predictable and mostly unrealistic. The production value is up to the standards of Bullock movies, and the acting isn't terrible by any means - but well, maybe I'd say that you'd have to suspend your realism much like you would with Home Alone. Those two criminals would have been dead or in the hospital after one or two of the events that happened to them - much like how there is literally no way Bullock's character would have made any kind of significant traveling movement with no sight plus two children.
