Sightless [Movie Review]


Sightless [Movie Review] | Before Covid-19, I always find time to watch movie every week, if I'm not attending events or out of town for work.

And now with the global pandemic, all the cinemas are closed and my greatest friend to kill the boredom is watching Netflix. 

So, here's another movie review for all of you.

Ellen, a former violinist, was attacked and left blind. Her brother, who is in Tokyo, hired an assistant, Clayton, to assist Ellen in her daily daily and slowly assist her transition as a blind person. As she eases her life into being a blind, she realises there are some oddities around her room - there's a car alarm that goes out the exact time daily and glass window that she can't hear anything from the outside. She also can't get hold of her best friend and brother ever since she checked in into the apartment. Clayton reassures her that it is all normal.

One night, she hears a woman crying. At first she thought that the woman is in her apartment, but turns out that the crying sound comes through the vent. She decides to invite her neighbour for tea. Lana, the neighbour appears the next day. When she touches Lana, she realises that there is a fresh stitch on Lana's face. Lana reacts by warning her not to trust anyone.

When Clayton tells her that he has feelings towards her, Ellen rejects the interest by stating that she needs caretaker more than a boyfriend at the moment. Broken hearted, Clayton leaves the apartment. Soon after, someone comes into the apartment and attacks Ellen. Ellen manages to dial 911 before she passes out as the attacked pushes a syringe onto her neck. Later, the paramedic tells her that there's no apparent injury and not a needle mark on her neck. When a detective comes in and tells her that the CCTV also shows no one enters the apartment after Clayton, Ellen comes to agreement that she can no longer believe her own perceptions She decides to jump from her balcony to end her miserable life.

Instead of landing on a hard pavement, she lands on the floor of a soundproof room. Then she realises that the car alarms and the outside noises were all coming from a speaker system.

What is actually going on in Ellen's life? Will she be able to leave the apartment?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.7/ 5.0 The plot is nicely arranged and I was as 'sightless' as Ellen, until towards the end of the movie. The plot is simple and sweetly twisted - you'll love the end. 

Cast: 4.8/ 5.0 I love the cast. They all performed beautifully. Not because that my boo, Madelaine Petsch (who plays Cheryll Blossom in Riverdale) is the main actress - but because the actors are all great. 

Will I watch it again: Yes, I don't mind watching it again. 

The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.
