The Film follows the event of a group of teens who attempt to rob a blind army vet

Rating: 8/10 (11 September 2016)

Fede Alvarez's 2016 thriller film "Don't Breathe" is a simple but effective film that is void on dialogue but makes up for this with extremely well shot scenes and sound design that leads to a slow roll of dread for both the viewer and characters. The film has an extremely small cast consisting of about 5 characters, the highlights being Stephen Lang who plays the blind man in the film, films like these rely on the villain to be nerve racking and scary and Lang knocks this right out of the park with his depiction of the military vet turned harden blind man after his daughter is hit and killed by a car in an accident. The other characters in the film Jane Levy (Rocky), Dylan Minnette (Alex) and Daniel Zovatto (Money also play their characters well with the highlight being Rocky, Levy plays Rocky well as a strong independent woman who don't need no man who can take care and think for self, although she does rely on Alex several times throughout the film. The film does suffer in some area's such as in the lighting where during the scenes filmed in the dark there are many gun shot flashes that instantly hurt your eyes. The Film also steers away from greatness when you realise their is a very weak plot holding the movie together, the plot was mainly just there to give a reason for the blind man to hunt down teenagers. All in all I think the positives thoroughly out weigh the positives that's why i'm giving Don't Breathe a 8/10 and my own frozen semen seal of approval.
