Bart (Tye Sheridan) lives in his mother's (Helen Hunt) basement. He has Asperger's syndrome. He is semi-functional in society working as a night clerk at a hotel. He has cameras in a few rooms. He is not strictly a voyeur as he listens to them talk and parrots what they say as a treatment to become more functional. As fate would have it, he sees a murder and doesn't know the proper way to respond bringing suspicion on himself.

I couldn't help think about "Motherless Brooklyn" or even "The Accountant" as Hollywood appears to have run out gum show types solving crimes. No bourbon, no cigarettes, no classy dames. Interesting film. Keeps you engaged.

Guide: F-word. Near sex. Nudity (Ana de Armas)

If someone told you they are not spying on you, they are recording you to study human behavior and use it as a lessons video, how to interact with other humans ... would you be anything else than creeped out? I kind of doubt it, but here we go.

And these video recordings have something to tell. Something that our main protagonist would or could use. So you do have to suspend your disbelief from the get go. Our main character has his issues or ticks, which make him interesting to say the least. And then along comes Ana de Armas - well her character does. But this character like every other character she has played and I have seen her portray, also does not seem to have an issue with showing off her body. Now in this case there is actually a reason for her showing off. It is part of the story and her character and it is a brief moment.

And while this is predictable (I don't think any of the twists will blow your mind),it is a nice little thriller/watch

It's a very interesting story, which develops well. Bart is a fascinating character, who's motives for doing what he does are sincere and innocent in his own way, buy invasive and voyeuristic.

The ending should have been so much better, if anything I thought it spoiled what was otherwise a very good film, the story builds and develops gradually, but the ending was harsh and abrupt.

Always great to see Helen Hunt, but the star of the show is of course Tye Sheridan, who's performance is actually captivating, what an amazingly talented young man he is. I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of him in the future.

Boy oh boy this was good, 7/10.
