Audience Reviews

Rosana B Adoro filmes de suspenses principalmente associado a portadores da síndrome de Asperger, provavelmente por ter trabalhado com algumas crianças na educação infantil, e isso me fascina... Tye Sheridan excelente atuação, os outros pouco interferiram na trama centrada em Bart... Um ótimo suspense dramático, embora com um desenvolvimento morno, porém agradável, e um plot Twist de respeito… Entretém e cativa... Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review Jeff M One could feasibly argue that this feels somewhat like a 21st century version of Hitchcock's REAR WINDOW. Except for the original's suspense. And style. And direction. And performances. Etc... As much as I hate remakes, the idea of a new REAR WINDOW is very appealing to me, considering the advances in technology since 1954 when the only means of spying was a pair of binoculars. But back to the film at hand. This is a D.O.A drag of a movie with no chills or thrills or any sense of fun. I also question the reason why the filmmakers felt it necessary to give the main character Asperger's syndrome. While I don't think it necessarily feels exploitative, it also adds nothing to the story itself and with a few tweaks could have easily been changed. Sheridan feels over the top to me, but not personally knowing anyone with this malady, I am hesitant to judge the performance. And I really hate to admit this because it's very judgmental of me, but I was distracted anytime Hunt came onscreen because I'm concerned about the amount of plastic surgery she has had. The performance being quite shrill didn't help matters any. I actually really love the concept here, which I think is full of potential, but this feels lazy and uninvolving without a single second of pulse-raising intensity. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Matthew R Not the most suspenful film but was having Ana de Armas in there was good enough for me. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/15/23 Full Review Anthony J An easy watch that kept me intrigued to the end. Tye Sheridan was very convincing portraying somebody socially awkward with Asperger Syndrome. Helen Hunt was also very good as the concerned mother. I felt it ended slightly premature, I would have like to have seen just a little bit more of the aftermath of the arrest. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Tye Sheridan si dimostra ottimo attore, perfetto interprete di un ragazzo con la sindrome di Asperger; riesce ad essere credibile e a spiegare molto bene i suoi sintomi e i suoi pensieri; sicuramente l'aspetto migliore del film.Per il resto, la trama che sembra interessante come inizio, non si sviluppa in maniera adeguata, restando piatta e con poco materiale.Gli altri personaggi mancano praticamente tutti di interesse e di comprensibilità.Il finale è poco chiaro. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Gianmarco R The film as its plot is interesting until almost the end where literally everything is ruined with a hideous, useless and practically meaningless ending, with the ending a very good film with an original and disturbing idea is destroyed and that had managed to create a good atmosphere, really a horrendous shame about the ending.
