Don't Move

"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..."

"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."

"Actually a pretty decent edge-of-the-sitter. Solid 3.9-4.1 ⭐️"

"All I could see the whole movie is Monica Dutton and that creepy AHS dude. Predicable. "

"This was an ‘edge-of-your-seat-the-whole-time-movie’. From start to finish. It was okay! I enjoyed it. Acting was amazing. Kelsey Asbille killlllllled her role in this! Don’t judge of reviews. Give it a watch! 7/10 ⭐️ "

"Thrilling movie that's tense throughout. It's pretty solid but left me yearning for more depth."
