Blink Twice

This is mainly due to:

• the very good actors, who are

charismatic and convincing. Especially the role of the self-made billionaire Channing Tatum and Adria Arjona.

Adria Arjona is the secret star of the movie - in my opinion. She looks stunning and plays the funniest scenes in the movie.

• and the story, which keeps you interested in how all of this is going to play out.

Basically, there are some "Saltburn" vibes (the rich invite the normal people to a non-stop party time, separated from the rest of the world) and some "Get Out" vibes. (Something seems wrong here).

The soundtrack is also really nice.

An absolutely brilliant choice of music, mainly soul/funk/Disco. Rufus with Chaka Khan, James Brown, and more.

And the movie is funny. It's almost a comedy, even though it's actually a brutal mystery thriller.

I recommend checking out this little gem. Don't listen to the extremely negative reviews. Haters gonna hate.

This film was good. Enjoyable but hard not to keep thinking about the "client list" of Epsteins island. Imagine who's on it. This movie gives insight to that.... Anybody and everybody...people are truly sick and this movie does not land far from many truths. See it for yourself. I enjoyed the slower pacing as you watch the story slowly unfold like a blooming flower. I usually don't care for Canning Tatum but he wasn't bad in this. I think Zoe's first effort was solid but hopefully she will continue to hone her craft. Curious to see what she does next. This film isn't perfect but was not a waste of time.

The end really didn't do it for me.

I really was engaged with this movie for 95% of the ride and then the last couple of moments felt like.... A different story and point entirely.

I am still thinking about it and trying to reconcile in my mind why did they end it that way? It does not seem like the intention or maybe the general message of the rest of the film.

Is the ending supposed to be a statement of society, or a fantasy that we were supposed to be excited about? I don't know. It seemed contrived and trying to be edgy and I just wish something more practical happened with our main characters.

That ending wasn't justice. And it wasn't empowering. It was unsettling.

Reguardles, this film may make you really feel some intense emotions, as you figure out what is going on and I think they executed that very well. Everyone in this acted in a way that really impressed me and showed a lot of intent with just their body language in many scenes. I felt a lot more than I heard, and that was a very immersive experience.

I would have given this movie a 9, if it weren't for that ending. And I hope there one day is some other cut released that has almost anything else happening to these 2 main characters. It seems so out of place and fast, it makes you think it was merely an interchangeable afterthought, to what was a really interesting story and plot (during the majority of the movie) .

I was really looking forward to "Blink Twice" after the trailer caught my eye. Sadly, the movie didn't live up to the hype. It started off pretty slow with too much time spent on party scenes that didn't really go anywhere or add much to the story.

When things finally started to happen, it all felt rushed and the ending was a letdown. It seemed like the film had the pieces to be really interesting but just couldn't put them together in a satisfying way.

Overall, "Blink Twice" has a cool idea but doesn't quite nail the execution. It might be worth a watch if you're curious, but it might not live up to your expectations.

Stylish and promising. But fails to deliver. It falls into the emerging niche of "all is not what it seems...twist...white people are bad". Wish is disappointing. The premise has so much potential before trying to engage in some social justice tropes. To the point where the pacing gets thrown off. The first hour is non-eventful and overblown. There's a decent attempt at building an ominous sense of foreboding. But it just fails to deliver in the finale with end result feeling very rushed and underdeveloped.

The film is undoubtedly stylish, beautifully shot with some good performances. But it ultimately falls short.
