Sydney Sweeney (Pippa), Justice Smith (Thomas), Ben Hardy (Seb), Natasha Bordizzo (Julia), Katharine So (Ari), Cameo Adele (Joni), Jean Yoon (Dr. Sato), Cait Alexander (Sam), Blessing Adedijo (Mere).
The Voyeurs begins innocently enough as Pippa and Thomas finally join their lives together, moving into their dream apartment. Almost as quickly, they realize they can easily see into the neighbors apartment across the street and the neighbors are not shy with their intimate activities. Before long, curiosity turns to obsession with Pippa and Thomas injecting themselves into their neighbors lives. From there the film is an interesting cat-and-mouse adventure with some great twists and tension.
Acting was good with Sweeney and Smith both delivering well. Hardy was interesting but really not likeable. Bordizzo was solid and enjoyable. So, Adele, and the reminder of the supporting cast were good.
Camera work, sets, and backgrounds were solid with good variety and a realistic feel. Physical effects were good and fit the film nicely. Dialogue was enjoyable with nice depth and movement. Sound and soundtrack are fitting.
The Voyeurs is an enjoyable, interesting, and entertaining film that blends intimacy with drama, mystery, and thrills along with a plot twist or two that add nice depth. Those who enjoy intense drama or unusual mysteries should enjoy this one.
With plenty of sexuality some of which is fairly graphic, nudity, adult situations, foul language, mild violence and gore, save this one for adults and above.
