Our suggestions
Every Breath You Take is a searing psychological thriller about a psychiatrist, whose career is thrown into jeopardy after his patient takes her own life. When he invites his patient’s surviving brother into his home to meet his wife and daughter, his family life is suddenly torn apart.
"The feature film 'Every Breath You Take' already draws attention right away due to its cast composed of names such as Casey Affleck, Michelle Monaghan and Sam Claflin, in addition to the direction under the care of Vaughn Stein (from the interesting and underrated 'Perfect Vengeance'). In addition, the plot is catchy: a psychiatrist (Affleck), after a patient commits suicide, sees his family life thrown into turmoil. Not only because of the trauma at work, but also because of the return of his brother (Claflin) in his life. Drama with touches of domestic psychological thriller, like 'The Woman in the Window', there are some beaten elements in the formula used in the script of debutant David Murray and which can even tire those who seek some freshness in this type of story. However, the good performances, especially from Affleck and Monaghan, help to hold the narrative and, in the end, still make 'Every Breath You Take' a good suspense pastime."
