“Blink Twice” does not quite get there, but it offers enough thrills to be diverting.

There is something about Naomi Ackie's portrayal of Frida that makes her relatable but mysterious. The Graphic, in your face approach is disturbing on so many fronts that it might be hard to even open one's eyes at all.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 6, 2025

Starring some of our most congenial faves, Blink Twice is a startling cautionary tale about the evil that can lay in men’s minds and the blindness that women can develop to it.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jan 31, 2025

The script is smart, the cinematography is a vibe, and the film exceeded expectations at every turn. How is this Zoe Kravitz's first feature?

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 30, 2025

One of Kravitz’s major accomplishments in the movie is how she and the cinematographer, Adam Newport-Berra, make an island paradise feel like hell on Earth.

| Dec 6, 2024

Working from a script that she co-wrote with E.T. Feigenbaum, Kravitz shows a keen visual eye and a master sense of pacing – creating a highly effective, star-studded thriller that is also a razor-sharp social commentary.

| Original Score: B+ | Dec 6, 2024

Blink Twice may be a little bit uneven, but it’s not easily forgotten.

| Dec 5, 2024

The film’s obsession with forgetting can be read as a commentary on the way we displace culpability for violence onto the poor.

Blink Twice is a welcome addition to the long list of films with the theme of ‘eat the rich’, even if it presents itself slightly differently.

| Nov 13, 2024

It places a societal injustice in the crosshairs and takes aim with cathartic precision.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 9, 2024

Blink Twice is gripping, nail-biting and cringe-inducing - in a good way - filmmaking shot in vibrant fashion by a debut director worth keeping two eyes on going forward.

| Oct 27, 2024

Kravitz’s directorial debut is both skillful and entertaining, keeping audiences on the edge of their seat through this hilarious and nuanced psychological thriller.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 25, 2024

Kravitz opts to go in a more sensational and thrill-oriented direction, following the well-trodden path that films like Promising Young Woman, The Menu, and Triangle of Sadness carved out in recent years. Blink Twice works as efficiently as any of those.

Kravitz’ stylish visuals, sly humor, and satirical sense hold much promise for her filmmaking future.

There’s no shortage of billionaires behaving badly nowadays. As this sojourn in a tropical paradise becomes progressively more nightmarish, we’re invited to reflect on the corrupting influence of inordinate wealth.

| Oct 8, 2024

'Blink Twice' is a thriller that's worth a look.

| Original Score: 3 stars | Oct 4, 2024

This twisted tale of bacchanalian excess and privilege looks and sounds beautiful, but also has annoying plot holes and wastes too much time in the set-up towards a rushed climax

| Oct 4, 2024

Sexual politics is the name of the sinister game - but - since neither the concept nor the characters are fully developed - the satirical cynicism and graphic brutality seem inexplicably gratuitous.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Oct 2, 2024

Technically speaking, this is an excellent debut feature for Kravitz.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 30, 2024

A confident directorial debut by Kravitz but I’ll accept the wrath by saying the truth: why did Kravitz make every cast member intentionally ugly? So no one can take anything away from her star or her shadow presence as director?
