You might think that this is a metaphor or a social commentary on the increasing violence in the real world, but somehow I feel that we're already living part of this plot in our daily life, just by looking at the wrong person in the wrong moment or place and trigger their aggression for no apparent reason.
This film kept me on the edge of my seat for most of its duration!
I really liked the idea behind it, where Vincent starts getting attacked out of the blue by random people, but quickly tries to figure out the problem, realizing it has something to do with keeping direct eye contact with them.
Great idea and strong execution, up until the end, where the movie shifts to a different path, one that I didn't like. I would've preferred if the plot had remained focused on Vincent and maybe on those few initial people he found who shared the same issue.
The blend of horror or thriller with dark comedy is actually quite smooth. There are moments when you might find something amusing in a scene, only to feel completely disgusted or shocked moments later by something really raw! And all of it to actually make sense.
The reason for the whole situation is never clarified, but it doesn't feel like a problem giving how well the film portrays Vincent navigating through every threat he encounters. You soon start to feel concerned with whether he will make it out alive, rather than why this is happening.
The actor (Karim Leklou) was a great choice for the role, as his whole initial vibe would make anyone wonder why would someone have issues with him.
Aside from the ending and a few scenes that didn't quite make sense for me (although I thought I paid enough attention, but cannot give more details to avoid spoilers), I feel like this movie is really worth watching and I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did!
