Don't Breathe (2016)
5/10
Passable thriller with a LOT of dumb ideas
15 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
First, the brutally stupid things.

1. Blind guy keeps $300k cash in his desolate house.

2. Gun runs out of bullets when a protagonist is about to die.

3. Protagonists think $300k is their last score, split three ways. Will that even buy a cheeseburger anymore? I expected to see Dr. Evil in this scene.

4. Teenage boy has access to magic device that shuts off all home alarms because his dad is a cop.

5. Another movie about a sex dungeon in a Detroit no-go zone. I don't even doubt these exist, I'm just tired of seeing movies about them. Granted, this one came before Barbarian, but I didn't like that movie either.

6. Cute girl's bad boyfriend is called Money. I refuse to believe that anyone currently exists on planet earth that goes by the nickname Money.

7. Blind guy has two safes with the same code.

8. Protagonist is able to deduce safe code by hearing the beeps while she's in fear for her life.

This isn't a terrible movie if you just accept that literally nothing in it makes sense outside the context of creating a plot gimmick.
