Don't Move

"This edge of your seat, suspenseful thriller does its job by creating an increasing sense of dread throughout the film. Finn Wittrock gives off a slight American Psycho vibe in his performance as a master manipulative killer. Some characters choices are questionable but not to the point of disbelief. The movie has a good pace to it and kept me intrigued the entire time. Well done. 8/10"

"Simple plot but pretty good suspense throughout "

"Day #20 of Spooktober I watched Don’t Move. It could have been way better if the writers were willing to take any risks..."

"There was moments were I want to turn the TV off there were moments I was making fun of every second on that screen there were moments were I was how can you be that dumb you cannot be serious right now but I wastoo invested into deep so I did watch the movie completely I would say watch this and take a shot for every moment of stupidity "

"3.5 stars. I label this as a one time watch. It was good to see this actress outside of Yellowstone. I think she is really good. This movie takes a turn quickly. We get a quick backstory and then, bam! Evil intent ensues. It builds tension very well."

"Possibly some slight spoilers but... ...If you read the short synopsis of this movie, there really isn't much more to tell. That pretty much says it all. It's interesting watching the chain of events, but it basically begins and ends as you would imagine it would. I'm not going to tell you how that is, but I'm sure you already know. The movie wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. Probably somewhere between acceptable and good. I love Finn Wittrock, but he'll always be Dandy Mott to me. He was good in this, but I need to find something he's in where he's not a psycho. (I've noticed I've said "but" a lot so far...) As for Kelsey Asbille Chow, who plays the protagonist, Iris... she was good. When you can't speak or move for a large portion of a movie, it's hard to get it wrong. I liked her sp/unk (funny they won't allow that word) and survival instincts. My only issue was her eyes. I know you can show expressions just using your eyes and since she was actually able to see and blink, I guess I was hoping for better oculesics. (Yes, I looked that word up. You should, too.) You can show fear by just widening your eyes but her eyes were always the same, mostly expressionless. Which brings up another point. If a drug paralyzes your entire body including your voice, wouldn't that include your eyelids as well? Anyway, it wasn't a waste of time so no harm done. Also, apparently a lot of people liked it so I wouldn't be surprised if you did too. Rotten Tomatoes has it at 74% from 23 critics with an average rating of 6.2/10. Metacritic has the film scoring 54/100 based on 7 critics which signifies "mixed or average" reviews, which I would say probably is the best wording for my review. Mixed or average."

"Intense and fun to watch!"

"Rounding up to 3 stars from the 2.5 stars I think it deserves. It’s not a “bad” movie. But, it just doesn’t do anything to make it better than a run of the mill, fairly predictable thriller."

"Great thriller! I love the fact that the leading lady was a fighter. She never gave up and in the end, it saved her life "

"I was impressed by this. Asbilles' acting is noteworthy, there's lots of cat and mouse, and I appreciate the plot overall. It kept me entertained and engaged. Honestly, I think this entire movie in addition to the suspenseful beginning sequences of "Alone" would've made for a blockbuster. But I'm not disappointed in this one by any means. I appreciate that it promises action and gives you action. Overall, it's a relatively predictable plot, but still a plot I enjoy watching. "
