Movie Review: 'Don't Breathe'

Don't Breathe is a simple story of a burglary going awry. The narrative follows three amateur burglars, Rocky (Jane Levy), Alex (Dylan Minnette) and Money (Daniel Zovatto), who after a series of small thefts, decide to hit it big by committing burglary in the house of a recluse old blind man (Stephen Lang), who they believe has a stack full of cash which he received from the insurance company after he lost his daughter in an accident.Unfortunately for Rocky, Money and Alex, they bite off more than they bargained for as they fall prey to their victim, who has secrets of his own. The man is more than they anticipated: A war veteran, blinded in combat, who despite his blindness was well-tuned to his surroundings and could take care of himself and his belongings during the gravest of situations. It is how the tables get turned where the hunter becomes the hunted and the Blind Man pursues his intruders without mercy, forms the crux of the narrative.
