Open Windows is a 2014 thriller film directed by Nacho Vigalondo and starring Sasha Grey, Elijah Wood, and Neil Maskell. The movie revolves around a man named Nick Chambers (Elijah Wood), who is a huge fan of a popular actress named Jill Goddard (Sasha Grey). Nick wins a contest for the chance to meet his idol, Jill Goddard, in person. However, when the meeting is unexpectedly cancelled, Nick is contacted by a man named Chord (Neil Maskell), who claims to be a representative of Jill's promotional department. Chord offers Nick a chance to spy on Jill through her webcam, which he says is rigged with the latest in security technology.

At first, Nick is hesitant but eventually gives in to Chord's persuasion. As he starts to watch Jill, he realizes that something is amiss. Jill is being held captive, and Nick is the only one who can help her. With the help of Chord, Nick embarks on a dangerous mission to save his idol before it's too late.

The movie is shot entirely through a computer screen, giving the audience a unique perspective of what it's like to live in a modern, digital world. The plot of the film is complex, and the viewer is taken through a series of twists and turns, which keeps them on the edge of their seat.

The performances by the three main actors are impressive, especially Elijah Wood, who does an excellent job of carrying the movie. Sasha Grey also shines in her role as the captive actress, giving a raw and emotional performance that is both harrowing and captivating.

The cinematography is another standout feature of the movie, featuring a variety of camera angles, some of which are taken from Nick's laptop, while others present a more traditional view. The camera work is kept steady and focused, even during moments of intense action, which helps accentuate the sense of tension and suspense.

Overall, Open Windows is a must-watch for fans of the thriller genre. It presents a unique take on the traditional crime drama, exploring modern themes of digital privacy and the pervasiveness of technology in our lives. The film's pulse-pounding action sequences, coupled with its engaging storyline, create a cinematic experience that is both thrilling and thought-provoking. If you're looking for a movie that will keep you guessing until the very end, Open Windows is the perfect choice.
