Avis en vedette
This movie held my interest all the way through--- the pace of the film was right on target for this type of genre. Creative storyline, great plot twist, and the cinematography is top notch. Overall, very suspenseful. Many horror films are predictable, this was not the case with this storyline. Highly worth watching.
While the idea behind this low budget horror-thriller certainly is intriguing.
The execution is really quite bad.
As the acting- including from Breaking Bad star RJ Mitte- is particularly dreadful.
With a poorly constructed plot.
And writing that is mediocre at best.
The whole thing comes off as a film school project.
Which is a shame.
Because, given a bigger budget, and some more seasoned direction...it could have had potential.
The main problem I had with it all...is the dubious psychology around which the entire story is based.
It's never fully explained.
While the paranormal aspect of it is incredibly confusing.
On top of this, the sequences flashing back to highschool either needed to be redone...or scrapped altogether.
Because they just don't work.
It's just not believable watching these mid 30's actors pawn themselves off as teenagers.
With the act Mitte's character has repressed making literally no sense whatsoever.
Which kind of ruins everything.
Because, while they do adequately explain it via several twists.
The fact he wouldn't have gone to the police about it just isn't plausible.
So, using it as the crux of the storyline was an incredibly poor decision, in my opinion.
As it squanders what little the film had going for it.
Which wasn't much to begin with.
You can tell they thought they were being clever with the multi-twist ending.
But it's hard not be upset by it's fatal flaw.
Because it was totally possible to rework the entire plot, around the ending, so as to completely avoid these complications.
Making it all feel a bit lazy...or, at the very least, forced.
Because...while you might not see the ending coming.
It's just not a rewarding experience.
And felt like they drew the conclusion out a bit long for what it was.
When they could have ended on a high note.
But it is what it is.
3 out of 10.

I had never even heard about this 2023 thriller from writer Jennifer A. Goodman and director Vincent Shade prior to stumbling upon it by random chance. However, I will say that the movie's cover definitely was sufficient enough to grab my attention.
However, "The Unseen" turned out to be a rather monotonous, bland and actually rather pointless thriller. Writer Jennifer A. Goodman just failed to concoct anything even remotely thrilling, much less actually interesting or entertaining. Yet, I still managed to sit through all 100 minutes of the movie, hoping that the movie would eventually pick up in pace, or that actor RJ Mitte would be given something more worthwhile in terms of script and character to bring to the screen. That just never happened.
The acting performances in "The Unseen" were adequate, despite the fact that the actors and actresses virtually had nothing to work with from writer Jennifer A. Goodman.
For a thriller then director Vincent Shade swung and missed. The movie was ultimately very bland and devoid of any interesting flavors of any kind. And this is not a movie that I will recommend for thriller fans to rush out and get to watch. Nor is it a movie that I will ever pick up and watch a second time.
Funny how the movie's title actually is a premonition of what will happen to the movie itself.
My rating of "The Unseen" lands on a two out of ten stars. It just simply wasn't worth the 100 minutes.

What an absolute load of tosh. Wasted 1 hour and 45mins of my life. I have no other purpose in life but to buy this dvd just to ooooff it over the neighbours fence. I have given 1 star for one reason.. and one reason only. I particularly enjoyed the scene where the main character (mitti) can't remember his name... power walks past a lady who is holding 1000 pieces of paper. She twists and throws the paper in the air like a ballerina at a wedding whilst letting out a high pitched scream 10 minutes after he walks past her. Safe to say I'm more than disappointed with this film which il never be able to unsee......
As an avid moviegoer, I had high hopes for "The Unseen," from reading reviews on here. Unfortunately, my anticipation quickly turned into disappointment and confusion as I endured what can only be described as a mishandled and poorly executed cinematic endeavor.
From the opening scene, it became painfully evident that "The Unseen" lacked any coherent plot or direction. The story stumbled aimlessly from one disjointed sequence to another, leaving me wondering who wrote this? Any attempt at crafting a mysterious and thought-provoking narrative fell flat.
The characters in "The Unseen" were equally underwhelming. The actors performances were hindered by weak dialogue and underdeveloped personalities. It felt as if the actors were struggling to breathe life into poorly written and uninteresting roles, resulting in unconvincing and uninspiring performances that failed to evoke any emotional connection.
Perhaps the most glaring flaw of "The Unseen" was its blatant disregard for basic storytelling principles. Scene transitions were lacked coherence. It felt as if the film was edited by someone with no understanding of pacing or continuity, resulting in a haphazard mess that was difficult to follow and immensely frustrating to watch.
Furthermore, the cinematography and visual effects in "The Unseen" were subpar at best. The film relied heavily on clichéd jump scares and predictable horror tropes, failing to offer anything fresh or innovative. The few attempts at creating suspense were hampered by laughable special effects and lackluster camera work, further detracting from any potential enjoyment the movie could have offered.
Ultimately, "The Unseen" falls short on every level. The film's lack of a coherent plot, underdeveloped characters, and poor execution make it a frustrating and forgettable experience.
Save your time and money. Skip "The Unseen" altogether.
