Anthony Sherratt says: BLINK TWICE is one of those rare movies that is impeccable but difficult to recommend. Zoe Kravitz’s directorial debut is magnificent in so many ways; great acting, a storyline that engages, and fantastic production values, all wrapped up in a mystery. It’s bold and certainly swings for the fences. It’s just a shame the final content is so disturbing. There’s a fine line between making a point and making an audience too uncomfortable and for all the wall-to-wall quality, the morality exploration overstepped the line.
It’s bizarre when you can appreciate a quality movie but recommend most people give it a miss. Despite that I can’t wait for Kravitz’s next outing as a director.
