A film that - from its basic set-up to its dearth of tension - plays like the tedious inverse of Don't Breathe.

The dreary lack of suspense in this tweaked "Rear Window" scenario, and our inability to care one whit for two cruel, arrogant bullies operating under a perceived notion that they're social scientists, makes this one tough going.

There's not much real suspense stirred here by a premise that straddles recent found-footage thrillers and "Rear Window."

3/5

What starts out as a cruel, yet carefully crafted prank, ends in a paranoid delusion with an emotional twist.

3.5/5

It does run into some pacing issues and suffers from a duo of unlikable protagonists, but makes up for it all in the final reel with an emotional sucker punch of an ending.

After you spend some time with this Good Neighbor, you might second guess yourself the next time you feel the urge to yank those blinds down.

A mystery disguised as a horror. The ending is so thought provoking and actually made me cry. A great movie if you ask me. Intense and powerful.

Surprised at the mostly neagtive reviews from critics. This is a good thought provoking movie with a well executed ending. The flashbacks and cuts back to the present are very well done and it keeps you guessing all the way til the end. I enjoyed it mostly b/c the movie surprised me. Although the story is perhaps coanventional, it does not take the conventional route. It is also extremely well made, with tight pacing and good performances. The movie really is more of a drama/thriller rather than a horror movie. So if you're expecting a jump scare don't breathe type of horror movie than skip this one.

Roller coaster from start to finish, I liked this movie! In the society we live in where most record everything they do or that others do (not to mention the urge to be a viral superstar), it makes you think about how much is too much. Well written, well acted.

A decent storyline with few important characters. The scenes in this movie gave hidden details that led Irony and emotions. The throw-in of psychological refrences gave it a slightly disturbing tone while at the same time wouldnt be considered a "horror" movie. Over all a very well made movie that i injoyed and left me at the edge if my seat multiple times.

Accually really good. The music was great. The story was accually pretty intriguing. The ending though. The entire time the movie is making you believe this is whats happening and why. The end changes every bit of that. 8/10.
