With a fresh spin...
Recently i saw Immaculate which inspired me to go check out Michael Mohans previous work staring Sydney Sweeney. As much as i enjoyed 'Immaculate' and i did. I enjoyed The Voyeurs even more. Maybe it was the Topless sex scene, but I'd like to think it's more than just that. The entire piece intrigued me. Let me explain why.
The Voyeurs reminds me of a John Carpenter movie i watched recently. In genre terms, probably cross between the thriller and drama film types. What begins as harmless interest in the strangers affairs focusing on the opposite apartment window, will soon become an obsession.
The current 'It girl' as Pippa (Sydney Sweeney) is well and truly suited for the part and it is seen within her acting so clearly you already sense what is going to happen after the first half hour. The sudden interest is too strong to ignore, which is a credit to her acting, yet it leaves some predictability. However later there is enough of a twist to outplay the audience with a very satisfactory feeling.
The standout sex scene is probably the best part of the movie and also one of the best sex scenes I have seen in any movie. Its a slow seductively well played out scene with a lot of guilt as well as maximum pleasure. This can only be credit to (Ben Hardy) as Sebastian and (Sydney Sweeney) as Pippa they make it feel so wrong, still somehow we wanna see it. Lately Sweeney is credited more for her out of this world boobs, (i can see why after that scene) than her acting, which is a real shame as this girl can act.
Many are talking about (Justice Smith) as Thomas, admittedly i never noticed an issue with his voice or acting but this is coming from somebody who has not watched him in previous movies.
I love the direction and cinematography it all felt right for this type of film. The binoculars to show how far Pippa's obsession went too far. Did she really want to help the other lady out or was it just her way of sticking her nose in? Was she secretly bored of her man and did she want to experience somebody new the entire time? This film answers a variety of questions we all experience at some point in our life.
Overall there are films similar like "Somebody is watching me" the John Carpenter film or even before then Hitchcock. But this seems fresh as it is more of a modern update on that kind of flick, and again, it offers two twists I didn't see coming!
