Most reviewers seem to agree that this was a boring and rather pointless film. One of the "positive" reviews suggests that everyone who disliked this film is "unsophisticated". Well, I can't speak for the others, but personally I consider myself a reasonably sophisticated film buff. I tend to prefer films that are less "artsy", but as a former film student and someone who has worked in theatre, film, and TV since the age of 14, I have been exposed to (and enjoyed) a wide and eclectic range of dramatic entertainment - and art - over the years, and I still found ALL I SEE IS YOU to be a boring and pretentious load of twaddle.Technically it is very well made, from a visual standpoint at least, and the actors do a passable job with the weak material they are given. But it is in the writing and directing that this film falls down. There just isn't enough in it to justify such lavish visuals, as on their own they amount to little more than directorial masturbation. More solid storytelling was required - and it didn't have to be conventional if it didn't want to; experimental would have been fine - but there needed to me a stronger and more coherent narrative upon which to hang all those visuals. And the visuals themselves needed to be better contained, more cohesive, and more sparingly used.For example, the POV shots are great, particularly the eye-blinks, which are the best I've ever seen. And mostly they illustrate the varying degrees of vision-loss in an interesting and creative way. If the film limited itself to just these, as the sum-total of weird, psychedelic imagery, it may have been a lot better. But unfortunately we are given more of the same sort of imagery to illustrate the character's internal thoughts. And more again as just general shots of places and things, that are neither POV's or internal imagery. They're just the director getting off on too much VFX. The net product is a confusing and rather irritating mishmash that makes it very hard to follow the paper-thin narrative, and inclined this particular viewer to keep dozing off - aided by the trance-inducing music and sound design!All in all, there wasn't enough plot to keep me interested, none of the characters were particularly engaging or likeable, the visuals, music, and sound design threatened to put me in a coma, and there wasn't nearly as much sex and nudity as Netflix's hysterical warnings led me to expect, so I didn't even get to enjoy a psychedelic boner!Disappointing all round. I gave it three stars for effort and nice locations.

Ok, this film has a lot of twists and turns and moves fast. and several disconnects. which I am still trying to piece together...but it's not horrible.

This movie attempt at suspense and thrills is a 5 out of 10 because some things became too predictable and obvious. 1. We all knew the hubby has an inferiority complex. 2. His actions towards her getting her vision back was predictable because he didn't like her behavior. 3. We knew she was playing games with him after she found out what he was doing to herIt was watchable but not anything genius.

Just to let you know, I have watched over 2,200 movies/shows. This movie is slow just to let everyone know. But this story is very interesting in how things in a marriage can change when you add or subtract one single variable. This movie is not exciting but it is a good movie to watch once and twice if you didn't get it the first time.
