Don't Breathe, a 2016 thriller directed by Fede Álvarez, follows three young burglars who break into the home of a blind man in the hopes of stealing his fortune. However, their plan takes a turn for the worse when they realize that the man they are attempting to rob is not as vulnerable as they initially thought. Jane Levy portrays Rocky, the tough but vulnerable leader of the group who is motivated to steal by her desire to escape her poverty-stricken life and start anew with her young sister. Dylan Minnette plays Alex, her childhood friend and the mastermind behind the burglary, who harbors a secret crush on Rocky. Lastly, Stephen Lang plays the blind man, a grizzled veteran who appears to be an easy target at first glance.

The film takes place over the course of a single night as the trio searches for a way to gain entry to the house and find the man's hidden safe. Rocky, Alex, and their friend Money soon discover that the blind man is not as helpless as he seems when he successfully takes down Money with a swift blow. They are then left to navigate the labyrinth-like house with no easy way out.

As the blind man becomes increasingly dangerous and unpredictable, the trio discovers a horrifying secret that he has been hiding in his basement. The film then turns into a game of cat and mouse as the burglars fight for their lives and attempt to find a way out before it's too late.

The tension in Don't Breathe is palpable, with Álvarez masterfully using silence, darkness, and sound effects to create a suffocating atmosphere in which the characters must navigate. The film is not for the faint of heart, as there are moments of extreme violence and gore that may be unsettling to some viewers.

Stephen Lang delivers a standout performance as the blind man, delivering a nuanced portrayal of a man driven to desperation by his circumstances. Similarly, Jane Levy shines as Rocky, portraying a young woman who is strong and determined but also vulnerable and afraid.

Overall, Don't Breathe is a well-crafted thriller that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats. Its taut pacing, strong performances, and expertly-crafted tension make it a must-see for fans of the genre.

In the end, Don't Breathe is a gripping thriller that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats until the very end. With strong performances from its cast and a masterfully-executed atmosphere of tension and fear, it is a must-see for fans of the genre.

Don't Breathe is a 2016 thriller with a runtime of 1 hour and 28 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.1 and a MetaScore of 71.
