AVClub: “Just because he’s blind, it doesn’t mean he’s a fucking saint, bro.” So says tattooed burglar Money (Daniel Zovatto) to his teenaged accomplices while casing the home of some lonely, sightless old man they’re planning to rip off. Money won’t know the half of it, though, until the three have broken in and discovered that their mark is no helpless geriatric, but a merciless military veteran whose loss of vision hasn’t entirely diminished his skills as a killing machine. Half a century after Wait Until Dark pitted a blind Audrey Hepburn against the three crooks trying to get into her apartment, along comes Don’t Breathe to successfully invert its scenario. This time, the criminals are the terrified good guys, hiding in plain sight from a madman they shouldn’t have crossed. Their main obstacles: creaky floorboards, narrow hallways, and the telltale giveaway of their own ragged, unsuppressed breathing.
