“Don’t Breathe” is a horror movie about a trio of burglars in need of money to get out of town, so they decide to rob a blind veteran with $1 million in his home. I liked how we got to see a little history of the characters’ lives in the movie to get why they needed the money.

Also, within the first 15 minutes, the action already started. For an 88-minute movie it could not have been a minute shorter. It grasped my attention the whole time, and all the twists in the movie kept me on the edge of my chair.

Unlike most scary movies, there were no ghosts or evil spirits, just a blind man with a whole lot of anger. Also, I sided with the criminals because of all the things that they went through inside of the house.

I didn’t recognize most of the actors but one that did catch my eye was Jane Levy. She really played a good role as one of the robbers.

This movie has definitely made my top 10 list because it’s unlike most scary movies leaving me scared to go to bed. It left me wanting more of the story. I wanted to see what was going to happen next.

If I could have changed one thing about the movie I really wouldn’t change anything. Everything was great: the sound, the camera position, even the brightness since the movie was filmed mostly in the darkness.

This movie has me waiting for the sequel.
