: A common complaint among reviewers on IMDb and Letterboxd is the sound quality; many viewers found the dialogue difficult to understand because of heavy accents or background music that drowned out the actors.

: Despite its flaws, the performances—particularly by Tom Kemnitz Jr. and Gergana Mellin—are often cited as competent and the film's strongest asset. The use of lighting and sound effects in the latter third is also praised for creating a genuinely chilling atmosphere.

: The film is widely described as a "slow burn." The first hour focuses almost entirely on the mundane tasks of caregiving, which many viewers find "tedious" or "dull". However, the final 30 minutes shift into intense, "properly scary" horror.

: The film currently holds a 3.3/10 rating on IMDb based on over 300 user votes. Cast & Credits Don't Open Your Eyes (2018) - IMDb
