Hello everyone, my name is Paul Branson, and I do many things, food reviews, movie reviews,
00:07
and so, so, so much more.
00:09
Well today, I'm doing a movie I didn't even know about.
00:12
I had no clue about it.
00:13
I saw the poster, and they said it was a horror movie.
00:17
Well, when I looked it up, it said it was a thriller mystery movie.
00:21
I say it's more of a thriller psychological movie.
00:24
It's called Blink Twice.
00:27
And the poster has, as you see in the back of me, a camera, a good old-fashioned Polaroid
00:33
camera taking pictures.
00:36
But this was what actually surprised me.
00:39
I'm sitting in the theater, and I was tuned in right away, because I had no clue what
00:45
was really going on.
00:47
Right away it gets into character development.
00:49
There's a woman watching a TV.
00:51
Now this woman actress was in Rise of Skywalker, so I've only seen her once.
00:56
She did do other movies, but I'd never really seen her in those movies.
01:00
But now I'm going to really watch her, because this was a fantastic movie that she did.
01:06
She was the star of the show.
01:08
Also another actor was in this too, and I didn't really watch too many of him, too many
01:14
of his movies either, but he did 21 Jump Street 1 and 2.
01:20
And 21 Jump Street was a TV series with Johnny Depp in it.
01:24
And when they went to do a TV movie, or not a TV movie, an actual movie, they had this
01:30
actor in it.
01:32
Now these two were the main stars, and they had some other actors in there too that I
01:35
don't want to mention, because I kind of want you to be surprised.
01:39
They did have Christian Slater in here, and this is for people my age.
01:43
Christian Slater did a lot of movies, a lot of movies.
01:47
Broken Arrow with John Travolta.
01:51
He did Robin Hood with Kevin Cussner, called Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, and that was
01:56
a great movie as well.
01:58
So if you don't know who Christian Slater is, check him out, check out his movies, because
02:03
he was in this, and it was nice to see him in this movie, because I just haven't seen
02:07
it in a long time, or him in a long time, and he did some other great stuff.
02:13
Now what the movie is about, this billionaire got in trouble.
02:17
So he left his company, and gave it to someone else to look after while he went to a retreat.
02:23
Well he more than went to a retreat, he went to an island, and then he came back and apologized.
02:29
So this is what the woman is watching on TV.
02:32
Now this woman is poor, she has nothing, she just has a job that she seems to get in trouble
02:38
in.
02:39
So here's the character development here, of a poor woman and her friend, that can barely
02:44
pay rent.
02:46
So now she goes to work, and she's getting chewed out at work, because this is a big
02:51
gala, the billionaire will be there.
02:54
Now while she's at the job doing it, her friend comes, and says, let's crash the party.
03:02
So now, she leaves her job, puts on a dress, and the billionaire is now looking at her.
03:09
But something else happened at the party.
03:14
There was a lot of parties, and stuff like that, I'm trying to bite my tongue to make
03:20
sure.
03:21
Something happened at the party, but there was a connection between her and the billionaire.
03:27
So now, the billionaire is inviting her and her friend to the island.
03:34
Now right away there's reviewers going, why would you go with a perfectly good stranger
03:38
to an island?
03:40
Because he's a billionaire.
03:41
They're saying, that just doesn't make sense to me.
03:43
But she's like, why not?
03:45
She had nothing there for her.
03:47
She had nothing.
03:48
She also had some trauma, stuff that happened to her in the past, that you find out a little
03:53
later on, that I'm not really going to tell you about.
03:56
But now she goes to this island, and all these women are there, and all these men are there,
04:02
and they're just having a party, they're having fun all the time, but that's a little suspicious.
04:07
Why are they partying?
04:09
Why are they having fun all the time?
04:11
There's other stuff that goes on.
04:12
There's workers there doing other work and other things, but something odd is going on.
04:19
Something odd.
04:20
Now, the main guy who plays the billionaire, he's really good.
04:24
He's like kind of creepy, kind of not, a partier, and then the men are acting a little strange,
04:31
and they also have a camera taking pictures of everybody.
04:34
So what's going on?
04:35
Is it something about the island, or is it something about the men, or is it something
04:40
about the workers?
04:41
What is truly going on?
04:43
So I found this to be a really good, intelligently done movie.
04:47
I did find it to be a little bit too long.
04:50
I would have maybe taken out ten minutes.
04:52
But right now, as I'm thinking about it, maybe it was fine the way it was.
04:58
Now the ending itself will be talked about for a long time.
05:02
The ending is very, very good.
05:05
Now all this being said, the creepy music suited it, the cinematography was incredible,
05:12
the way it was edited.
05:13
Now the director who did this, this is the first time she directed a movie.
05:17
She was an actress and did some other movies, and I don't think I ever saw her act before.
05:21
But man, she could direct.
05:23
She also co-wrote it with somebody else, or she co-wrote it with her, I'm not sure exactly
05:28
how that worked out.
05:29
But there was two writers, and man, fantastic writing, fantastic script, fantastic dialogue.
05:38
It kept you interested all the way around, especially the creepy music.
05:42
Now it cost $20 million to make, 77 rotten tomatoes, and a 7 out of 10 on IMBD.
05:49
Now it didn't make too much money at the box office.
05:51
Deadpool and Wolverine is still killing it for this year of 2024.
05:56
Now, there were people in the theater, and afterwards I was talking to them, and they
06:01
enjoyed it too.
06:02
They would give this movie 8 out of 10.
06:05
I would give this movie a 9 out of 10.
06:08
I really did enjoy it, but I did feel it was just a little tinch too long.
06:13
But that's nothing.
06:14
Like, I just didn't want it to drag, and I just felt it did.
06:18
I felt that certain things just got to a point already, so it could have just been shorter.
06:24
Other than that, I really enjoyed it, a 9 out of 10, you've got to see it, the ending
06:29
would be talked about for years, $20 million to make, great actors, and some other surprise
06:35
actors in here.
06:36
I'm just not going to tell you.
06:38
Bye for now, everyone, have an incredible day, thank you for watching, and check it
06:42
out in the theater, because the Cinephotography deserves that, plus the music.
06:47
Bye for now, and thank you for watching.
