    FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/blink-twice-review-zoe-kravitzs-directorial-debut-delivers-a-thought-provoking-exploration-of-power-and-trauma/

    "Blink Twice marks a promising debut for Zoë Kravitz as a filmmaker, demonstrating that her personal creativity and vision aren't confined to the side of the camera she works on.

    Despite some shortcomings in tone management, the compelling narrative, supported by memorable performances from Ackie, Tatum, and Arjona, and an immersive, unsettling atmosphere, make this psychological thriller an engaging, cathartic experience. Kravitz tackles relevant, complex contemporary themes, offering a thought-provoking reflection on power, trauma, forgiveness, and forgetting.

    Above all,...

    Yikes but this is riddled with flaws. "Frida" (Naomi Ackie) and her pal "Jess" (Alia Shawkat) are working for the caterers at a grand party hosted by gazillionaire "Slater" (Channing Tatum). Mid way through the evening, they don their glad rags and join in the party. A little accident gets "Frida" introduced to their host and after a few glasses of Champagne, the two are thick as thieves. His chief of staff, "Vic" (Christian Slater) needs to go somewhere warm so he can have a drink with an umbrella in it, so they readily accept an invitation from their new-found friend to visit his paradise island where together with a group of his other friends, they will enjoy some sunshine, fine dining and drugs-galore. What's a bit unnerving on this oth...

    Great movie!

    'Blink Twice' manages to create high intrigue, an unsettling tone and is very stylishly put together, eventually showcasing some thoroughly enjoyable and visually pleasing violence towards the end. Naomi Ackie and Channing Tatum are both terrific, Ackie is particularly top notch. Nice to see Geena Davis involved too, not seen her since the days of 'Stuart Little'! The rest of the cast are all good value, especially Adria Arjona.

    I'd admit that it isn't the most unique picture, there are remnants of other productions scattered in there - 'Don't Worry Darling' for one, bit of 'Glass Onion' as well as basically any Jordan Peele flick. Still, I had a real fun time watching it all unfold on the big screen so I truly can't lea...

    Zoë Kravitz's BLINK TWICE is a startling thriller, but thats just the sheeps clothing around this dark moral exposé. The real wolf is the urgent assault story lying underneath. Its a stinging and significant shock that rubs salt into an open wound (and slaps awake the not ALL men! crowd).

    So how does Blink Twice explore sexual assault? What does it have to say about money and power? And is THAT rumour about its original title ACTUALLY true?

    Blink Twice is Zoe Kravitzs 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.
