Don't Move






PRAISE: A lot of times one on one or small cast thrillers work for me. Don't Move definitely did for the most part. Sure I've seen stories like it before and this one is about a grieving woman being pursued by a killer has a lot going for it.
As Iris Kelsey Asbille does a fine job because it's not only an emotional performance but a physical one. Also on point is Finn Wittrock as Richard the seemingly nice and comforting person but the creep is right underneath the surface. Directors
Adam Schindler and Brian Netto and
Writers David White and T.J. Cimfel make some great choices when they want to turn up the suspense and get the viewer involved. I definitely couldn't help but think about a couple of my favorite movies The Vanishing and the 1988 French-Dutch movie with the same name. The consistently in peril moments worked for me. I those the visual violence was pretty good. The inclusion of information about the characters blended in well. I also liked the therapy through trauma moments.

PROBLEMS: I couldn't get on board with how a couple of things played out in the movie especially with a character being so cautious and thorough.

Scale of 1 to 10 a 7½
