Arrow Blu-ray Film Review

I See You (2019) • Blu-ray [Arrow Video]

Strange occurrences plague a small-town detective and his family as he investigates the disappearance of a young boy.

I See You relies almost entirely on a series of genuinely ingenious twists and turns to keep audiences engrossed and guessing… right up until the final few frames. A careless remark from someone who’s seen it could so easily spoil the fun. It’s also really hard for reviewers to talk about without giving too much away. For the first half, there’s a similar vibe to another 2019 twisty thriller, Strange But True. Don’t worry, though, I See You makes none of its mistakes and its own revelations are consummately handled, with none relying on a huge not-so-clever twist.

Without prior knowledge, it’d be almost impossible to second guess what’s coming. In fact, director Adam Randall is so sure of this, he actually gives the audience the advantage of such prior knowledge by running through events twice with a clever narrative conceit. I mean that as a good thing!
