Don’t Breathe (2016) – a movie review

Don’t Breathe – Crime, Horror, Thriller

Don’t Breathe is a popular mixed crime-horror-thriller genre movie that aired for the first time in the USA in 6th December 2016 and shortly afterward grossed the box office over making something less than 90 million dollars. ($89,210,46).
Basically the short description about the scenario of the movie would be that 3 low-level criminals and experienced thieves decided to break in and rob a blind man’s house whom they heard sleeps in a house full of fortune, and hopefully get away with that, but the blind man would not be as helpless as he seems.

Now I don’t recommend reading the following text as it will be mostly full of spoilers about the movie, so if you want to watch the movie, probably skip this part.
Now, the movie revolves around 3 youngsters (probably in their mid-twenties) specifically 2 boys and 1 girl who are a trio of thieves, rob houses and work for a fourth man. One of the boys has a father who works as a chief in a security agency and precisely knew where stays the key from the drawer in which there were placed the keys of the houses that are insured by his father. And the movie gets the atmosphere as these three decide to finally break inside the old man’s house, which apparently is an ex-soldier that is now blind, who had lost his eyesight long before, in the Vietnam War during his Army servant time. Also, important to mention that he had lost his daughter too alongside his eyesight long time ago, which he got a good compensation for that, which makes the house even more thrilling to rob as they know there is a fortune waiting to be robbed in the house.

Now what I didn’t like about this movie is that throughout the whole freaking movie, a freaking old man was mind shaking them, chasing them around the house, and poor fellows could not even dare escape anyhow. Jeez, a freaking BLIND old man, which is SO unrealistic.

There was even this moment at the beginning of the movie when the old man noticed that there is someone in his house and rapidly went around the house to forge all the windows and doors so the kids can’t escape, LMAO. I mean, walks into the WC with a huge ironing and in a few minutes forges all the windows in the WC, making sure that they have no way of escaping the house. Just like that, for 2 seconds forged every window in the WC like he has 4 pairs of eyes as opposed to being blind.

This movie is so stupid, if you are not into details then I recommend watching it, but if you want something way more qualitative then I do not recommend watching this piece of crap.
