An interminable psychodrama that ironically went unseen opens its eyes to witness a streaming comeback

In a twist of fate that’s so deliciously cruel you couldn’t make it up given the movie’s premise, psychological drama All I See Is You ended up going almost completely unseen after finding itself delayed, and ultimately buried on VOD.

Blake Lively stars as a woman left blind since childhood after being caught up in a car crash that killed her parents, who now lives in picturesque Bangkok with Jason Clarke’s husband. He’s effectively her guide through life, but when an experimental procedure gives her the gift of partial eyesight, her life is fittingly reappraised through a very different lens.

All I See Is You premiered in September of 2016, but didn’t score a theatrical release until February 2018. Even then, it was a very limited big screen rollout that yielded a mere $678,000 at the box office on a $30 million budget, and it hardly set the world on fire in terms of its on-demand awareness, either.

Throw in respective Rotten Tomatoes scores of just 29 and 30 percent from critics and crowds, and you can fully understand why the only reputation it left behind is that of a forgotten film that delivered only on the irony front after nobody went out of their way to see it for themselves.

However, streaming has a funny old way of dragging even the most interminable motion pictures back up from the depths of irrelevance, with All I See Is You now opening the eyes of Starz subscribers everywhere. Per FlixPatrol, director Marc Foster’s tedious psychodrama is a Top 10 hit on the platform in both the United States and United Kingdom, so justice has finally been served.
