Blink Twice Ratings & Reviews
- JkrilinOctober 11, 2024“Blink Twice” is one of those movies that grabs you from the first minute and doesn't let go. The plot revolves around a mystery that seems simple at first, but takes increasingly intense twists, leaving you glued to the screen. It all starts with what seems to be an everyday situation, but as the minutes progress, you realize that nothing is what it seems. The director manages to create an atmosphere charged with tension and moments where you literally have to remind yourself to breathe. Added to this is a very solid cast, with performances that feel real and emotionally charged. The film plays with your expectations, and just when you think you know what's going to happen, it gives you a reality check you didn't see coming. It's a film that invites you to pay attention to every detail, as if you're piecing together a puzzle. And while it is loaded with intriguing moments, it also has room for those calmer moments that make you reflect on why the characters' decisions. It's one of those films that when it's over, leaves you thinking about what you've just seen for quite a while. In short, “Blink Twice” is an intelligent, tense and very well constructed thriller, ideal for those who enjoy surprises and mysteries that unfold little by little. Just don't trust anything... or anyone.
- aslamdriverFebruary 19, 2025A Stylish and Gripping Thriller ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (5/5) Zoë Kravitz delivers a tense and visually stunning thriller that keeps you hooked from start to finish. With a mix of mystery, suspense, and sharp social commentary, the film explores themes of power, control, and hidden dangers lurking beneath luxury. The performances are top-notch, and the eerie atmosphere builds toward a shocking and satisfying conclusion. A must-watch for fans of psychological thrillers!
- BluefastakanJuly 26, 2025Genuinely impressed with how good this was. Editing: Beautiful. Full of sharp, jarring cuts that ratchet up (or wonderfully break) the tension. Acting: Some absolutely PHENOMENAL performances here. Naomi Ackie (The scene with the knife and vape), Channing Tatum ("I'M SORRY), and Liz Caribel (Water pouring revelation) in particular really stood out. And getting these kinds of performances from the actors? Bravo Zoe Kravitz. Tone: A problem I can sometimes have with horror movies is when they lean too hard on the terror and bleakness of a situation without any moments of levity. Yes, tension is fantastic. But being tense for an entire movie is *exhausting*. Blink Twice so fantastically balanced the incredibly dark tone of the movie with some genuinely funny and heartfelt moments. Writing: Sooo much visual storytelling and just a TON of set-up and pay-off moments. Honestly looking forward to my next watch to catch more.

- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025Strong debut feature from Zoë Kravitz. It’s an elegantly shot, tightly edited, feminist horror. Really loved the visual palette and the use of color to emphasize thematic elements. The use of yellow and red really reminded me of M. Night Shyamalan’s The Village, just in a much more lavish setting. Yellow seems to represent memory or safety perhaps while the reds represent danger. I always love seeing that kind of use of color, particularly for a debut feature. If there are some drawbacks, it’s a little predictable with regard to who the villain is and what their motivations are. But it’s still satisfying to watch it all play out. Naomi Ackie was great in lead, but Tatum’s monologue is the film’s defining moment that serves to skewer PR apology tours. And apparently 2024 unlocked my Adria Ajorna crush. Also loved seeing Geena Davis, feminist icon, here but I would have really loved if she’d had a more significant or meaningful role. It’s not the deepest film, thematically speaking. It may even be a bit on the nose. It’s entertaining all the same. Forgive and forget? Who needs forgiveness when all can be forgotten?

- 匚卂尺ㄥFebruary 11, 2025If Quentin Tarentino were a feminist who decided to direct a thriller that substituted techies for wise guys and killers, Zoe Kravitz's Blink Twice would be the result. Kravtiz's amazing directorial debut is one big Mind F$#@ in the truest sense- a psychological thriller about the excesses of wealth, violence, and seduction without consequences until the end when the tables turn. Visually lush with a fast pace and great editing that really highlights the descent into all out madness, Blink Twice is Ex Machina and Carrie meets Get Out and The Menu, with a little Dusk to Dawn thrown in. The monsters come out after dark in a tropical, indigenous community of gorgeous scenery, delectable food, and terrible, moonlit secrets. And villain Slater King, skillfully played by Channing Tatum, is the most charming and dangerous of the bunch. The movie's trigger warning is well deserved. But Zoe Kravitz skillfully weaves an unexpected storyline about power, sex and misogyny with art, amazing music, fashion, Greek tragedy, and nature, especially pivotal chase scenes through the forest, to create a surreal, edge of your seat movie that surprises and shocks. It's part modern day thriller/revenge film and vampire movie, except the vampires in a metaphoric sense are techies who cavort during the day, love food, and aren't centuries old. They are still predators though unafraid to sacrifice bodies for their violent desires or to hypnotize victims into a forgetful stupor that renders their victims helpless until a local medicine woman and enchantress helps to shift the tables. And that's when the movie punches the gas and accelerates into high gear and all-out Quentin Tarantinoesque mayhem, ending with a gut punch moment of cold revenge and redemption. You gotta see it. This movie delivers from the acting, set design and pace. And the incredible soundtrack will keep you grooving the whole time.
- ScottMarch 13, 2025This movie was different with a unique storyline. The cast was likeable and they kept your interest. It was one of those movies that was hard to figure out what was going on, but that's what kept my interest, so that's good. I could tell something wasn't right with this whole thing, but I couldn't understand what. It's a psychological thriller that will keep you wondering well through the entire movie until the end, where even then you have to understand the motive behind everything. Just as in real life, our beliefs create our reality and everything else is a simply a reflection of it. Once you grasp this concept the movie will make more sense. The ending was surprising and something I didn't expect. But, it makes sense based on the other events in the movie as the tables are turned.
- diego.574March 30, 2025Another reason to hate men, this movie is ideologized, it is truth that there's evil people, but, only white men are bad, and women, mostly black are always angels of god according to this boring movie.
- PatrikStarJanuary 30, 2025Bachelor meets MIDSommar
- LuciferMorningstar00February 13, 2025This movie is not good.
- sgdjfJanuary 23, 2025Movie with a lot of twist. Definitely a lot of easter eggs and misdirection.
- mhantzeaJanuary 7, 2025Interesting story but a little unrealistic and a bit overrated
- ScottDecember 14, 2024The humour was often outcompeting the the tension but the brutality of the twist makes this a pretty memorable watch.
