When a weekend of catsitting is interrupted by a robbery, Sophie (a blind woman) uses every tool she has in an attempt to survive. See For Me is an evenly paced, concise home invasion experience that knows what it wants to do and sets out with a lot of confidence to do so. What makes the film so interesting is how it manages to make technology pivotal without making it all-consuming, the way a subgenre like screen horror does. Sophie’s use of a Be My Eyes style app reframes an otherwise typical home invasion in a fresh new way. And while some aspects of the script could have used, I think, another draft, the whole thing does ultimately pull together for a fun hour and a half. It carries a sufficiently tense atmosphere through the second half, and keeps its focus on the story, with minimal distraction.
