Keep Watching (2017)

I should've done the opposite of the title and stopped watching. What was the point of making this film if the antagonists win and I've just watched two whole families get butchered? I love horror and suspense films but this is just sick and wrong. I enjoy characters who can fight back from the get-go. These characters just conveniently clam up when the killers show up onscreen, no one has the guts to attempt to fight. I don't fault the actors, though - they all brought their A game. The writer, though... I get it, though. You're trying to make a statement about how we as a society seem to collectively enjoy watching horrible reality play out in streaming sources nowadays - it's just a message I felt was delivered without a decent ending to the film. The twist was OK, but it was obvious when one of the killers was unmasked. Therefore, I personally felt the ending scene was ridiculous and bumped my original feeling of a 7 rating down to a 2. Because why in the world did I waste 89 minutes just to watch some horrible thing that I probably read about in the news - there was no catharsis, just frustration. I'm glad I waited to watch this for free.

The top review was from an idiot that an barely spell words. In English. This movie was decent. Don't listen to turds.

This is your run of the mill home invasion with all the same screaming, getting locked in and slow attempts to find justification for what is happening. Bella Thorne is the stand out actress, who does a fair job of caring this film to its conclusion. However, even with her B++ acting the movie falls short because it has been done so many times and I think most horror/thriller fans are starved for something new. It is also a total setup for a sequel and I hate when movies have an ending that straight up lets you know that you haven't got the whole story. This isn't an awful film but it fails to satisfy.

Personally I found this movie wrong and stupid from every possible angle. Though, it wasn't the excitement nor the interest, i have pulled through til the end.. was a heroic task to be honest. The idea and the basic plot was a promising one. Too bad they had to screw up at every key point: the actors and actresses had no chemistry, and the leading characters were downright annoyingirrelevant side-plots: like why was it important to share the info on the debts of the father? Why was uncle Matt forced into the movie with a cheesy exuse - just to be killed 5 and 35 minutes later(s)? Not to mention the boyfirend...stupidity all over the place: and both our heroes and the attackers fell into this hole every single time. I mean, c'mon! I am not even going into the typical mistakes, and stupidity happening in most of the horror movies. But why was I forced to accept that the tragic hero(ine) in this movie should be the whiny little brat, who has absolutely no interpersonal skills, makes no sense in any conversations, whines and cries through 90 minutes of the movie, and does absolutely no contribution towards escaping or in any way improving their situaition. She, then, explores the fact that the bad guys targeted her and want her to rise from her prison to be much more, to release her true power. Yep, like that's gonna happen.. with a pregnant minor... And even after this point she fails to contribute to their situation in any way. Her brother, on the other hand, was the only one being able to kill one of the attackers, despite the fact he didn't even wash his hands after peeing. And also there's the camera question. I mean how many cameras were installed? About a hundred? And yet you can't notice one single camera, but you can notice a patch of paint i still fail to comprehend! You've gotta be super-stupid guys, sorry to have to hear this from me.lack of violence, blood, suspense and any horror elements: okay, there were like 2 jumpscare scenes, but literally, that's all. The movie is unfolding so slow, and using so cliché elements, so that actually all the suspense and fear is killed off. The ways of killing people are not creative at all - except may be one, but I am still not convinced if that was a proper way of killing someone. All in all the movie itsel was like a horror made for kids, under the age of 12. The 3 stars is for trying only. But the fun stops there. The result does not worth your time. Better go and watch Saw episode 156
