Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaNacho Vigalondo was inspired to create Open Windows after he was asked to create a thriller that heavily featured the Internet. He found writing the script a challenge, as he had to create the film's plot as well as give specific reasons for each window that opened and why the point of view would shift between the characters.
- GoofsTony manages to gain access to Nick's room by going down to the reception after finding out through them which room Nick is staying at. Hotel staffs are not allowed to give guests access to rooms themselves other than those they had booked for.

Featured review
If you've seen "Timecrimes", a movie previously made by the same director (he did another one in between that and this one, which I haven't watched yet), you'd be excused by thinking that this is a mess. Looking at it and especially towards the end, the movie goes off the rails. It loses all sense and logic. Where "Timecrimes" makes sense in every aspect (although it's highly complex), this is far from it.
But, you can still have fun with this movie. A lot of fun actually, especially considering the nature and the way this is shot (found footage light/like). You might get sucked into the struggle of our main actor, who's seemingly trying his best to move forward and get through. This might be great a great role for Elijah Wood (and even for Sasha Grey, who's still trying to find her place away from the adult career she had), but it won't be for every viewer ... consider the plot, how the movie is made/shown (found footage over a web cam, but with several other cameras outside shown in those ... windows) and decide for yourself ...
