Unseen 2023 Movie Review
Enjoyable indie movie that dumps you into a real life crazy situation immediately. The concept of this is pretty cool. I won’t write spoilers but it’s another tech type thriller involving FaceTime to help a woman literally see thru it (thus the title).
It’s cleverly directed, using split screens and some other techniques to keep the audience on edge. The characters are pretty well developed and it drives pretty solid tension throughout.
On the downside it’s predictable to a certain degree, the ancillary characters are way too over the top and some of the character decisions might make you say “come on now wtf”. But given that, it’s effective and quick too so you don’t get off track for the most part.
There’s some ridiculous “suspend reality” moments and it’s tries a bit too hard to be comedic with cartoonish characters but it’s still effective.
I would recommend if you like a quick 75 minute run time and some thriller/action/creativity. 6.3/10.
