Blink Twice

AN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT FILM!!!

I didn’t enjoy it cuz it didn’t have enough contrast to the horrors women experience in the real world, and the justice was incredibly unequal.

For sure one of the best movies I’ve ever watched. Made an account just to leave 5 stars! Well deserved ! please watch it.

3.5 stars; Well, move over Quentin Tarantino, Sam Peckinpah, and especially Brian De Palma. Here comes Zoe Kravitz. This movie is so violent, you can't watch it, but at the same time, you can't turn away. If you can force yourself through the sexual violence (you are warned about it at the beginning), you are treated to a neat, twisty mystery plot that keeps you guessing. And if you make it to the very end, the final twist will satisfy your patience.

Mildly interesting movie. But a dark one for sure. It's about a tech CEO informally recruiting people to go with him to his private island. A black girl views a clip of him publicly apologizing for his past behavior. He is handsome, however. She works as a waitress at his event and then he talks to her, shows interest, and invites her and her friend to go to the island. On the island, they eat good food, drink, get high, do drugs and seemingly have fun. They each get their own room and have clothes and perfume laid out for them. After many days of having fun, the black girl's friend wants to go home and tells her that she thinks there is something wrong with this place. Then she disappeared (likely killed). The black girl panics and asks the other people on the island where her friend is. No one remembers the friend. Then she realizes that the tech CEO is bad and somehow making everyone forget. It turns out that the perfume that they spray on themselves in their room is the cause. And that snake venom makes them remember again. They all band together and kill the men of the island, who have been taking advantage of them at night after they do drugs. The only people left are the tech CEO and his so-called therapist, in the end. Everyone dies except the black girl and her new friend who was casted on Survivor. In the end, footage shows the black girl as the new CEO of the tech guy's company, and instead of him holding the power and being in charge, she is flying him and his therapist to various places, doing who knows what to them.

We get it - "white men are evil", the message in countless popular movies these days. This doesn't have the effect you think it does.

After all the torture these white men inflicted on a diverse group of women, Kravitz, desperate for white validation, managed to cushion their behavior by making one a victim who then married his own victim. Mixed with unoriginal ideas from Get Out and historical plantation/slavery vibes this movie is disgusting. Kravitz sucks in front of the camera and even more so behind it.

Disgusting movie, how it got positive reviews, I cannot figure out.

Every time I felt comfortable the rug was pulled from beneath me. This one definitely lingered.

The colors in this movie are just amazing. Zoey creates a perfect atmosphere of chaos, with a meaningful context. One of my favorites ever
