Review of Don't Breathe (2016) by Ginak — 27 Aug 2016
This is a cheap trick, not very original revenge horror movie with the kind of mindless violence (and gross out) that has teenage boys giggling in the back row. Certainly Director Alvarez is slick – he has studied the tricks and knows how to move the plot along and shoot scenes to hold your interest.
But this is not a stylish or very smart film – not Halloween or Psycho or Alien or Silence of the Lambs – so I give it a middling grade. I wouldn’t even call it “fun” and I am a horror film fan.
Maybe he can learn to add a little less gore and a little more humanity in the future.
