Not very good at all...
- Blink Twice review by TB
Struggling to find a decent aspect to this film...
The script is bad, and the plot fairly non-existent. Most of the film is a bunch of annoying characters getting drunk & stoned, and being irritating. I didn't care for any of the characters at all. And it's really quite boring...
I think the previous reviewer must have seen a different movie (or is a schill). I'm being generous giving it 2 stars.

Dazzling
- Blink Twice review by griggs
Blink Twice is Zoe Kravitz’s dazzling directorial debut, a gripping, twisted thriller that confronts post #MeToo gender politics head-on. The film expertly combines razor-sharp genre storytelling with biting social commentary, all against a brutal, tension-filled backdrop. It’s as wildly entertaining as it is thought-provoking, making it a must-watch and one of the year’s standout films.

Bad
- Blink Twice review by cr
I agree with the second reviewer.
Curiously over praised yet lacking any kind of originality or interest it plods along with the same scenes time and time again until a pointless, unlikely and unsatisfying ending.
Avoid.

Mediocre Manblaming MetooBoohoo Boring Babywoman VictimPosing Feminist Fantasy
- Blink Twice review by PV
Watch MIDSOMMAR for a great film about a weird isolated community. Or maybe BRIGADOON. Not this dross.
It seems someone has decided to write a feminist pity party fantasy, a la Handmaid's Tale, in which all males are portrayed as nasty evil monsters and all women as innocent wickle girls (which is actually deep misogyny, infantilising adult women).
It seems the writers tried to rip off rumours Jeffrey Epstein in this.
The movie thinks it is SO clever and radical but it is neither. It does not have the style of the albeit flawed GET OUT. In a word, it's BORING.
And the ending. Why, this is metooboo feminist emoporn I think, complete with a manhating starter kit.
For anyone disagreeing with my take on this, JUST REVERSE the genders - and then ask yourself if you'd consider that sexist.
This is a silly girl fantasy, which I'd classify as porn really. And the TRIGGER WARNING before it thanks to AMAZON MGM studios made me realise the horror to come.
No stars
