Breathe is directed by Stefon Bristol director of See You Yesterday (2019).
My only question after watching Breathe is how in god's name were they able to get this much talent in this movie? Jennifer Hudson? Common? Quvenzhané Wallis? What exactly is going on here? The script reads like someone had no brainstorming going on and just decided to write it without any sort of outlining or any plan at all.
Milla Jovovich and Sam Worthington are also here which doesn't help the movie all that much, the characters in general are just horribly written with very little personality outside of cliche character traits. The acting is abysmal, it's very baffling to see some of these very talented people give performances that could be strongly considered as some of the worst performances so far this year. Jennifer Hudson is given so little to work with from the script despite being the lead, in fact that can be said for everyone involved. The script is so predictable, so terribly written and a huge waste that none of the people involved can pull off a somewhat decent performance.
The movie also spends a pretty decent amount of time with simply trying to open a door, it might have been one thing if the dialogue was at least interesting or there was some sort of mind game going on or maybe an investing back and forth. But unfortunately that's not what you get here, instead you get some incredibly bad dialogue that makes you want to turn this movie off.
What else can I really say? Breathe is one of the worst movies so far this year, it fails on every single level. How they got so many recognizable names to sign on to this movie is going to remain life's biggest questions.
Breathe is available on all VOD Platforms.
