Blink Twice (2024)

Let's Not Discuss The Original Title

A Review

Read Time: 1 min read

Rating: 2.5 out of 5.

I went into this hoping to see Channing Tatum break away from his usual goofy roles, but nope—still goofy. And now I wish I could just forget this movie altogether.

“Pompous,” “boring,” “unoriginal,” and “cliché” pretty much sum it up. Every scene feels painfully over-directed and unnatural, with dialogue so cringe-worthy and disconnected it feels like it came from a completely different movie. Even the title doesn’t make sense—it’s like they picked it out of a hat without even checking if it fit the story.

Honestly, the entire thing feels like the product of too many cooks in the kitchen. It’s as if five separate groups of writers submitted conflicting drafts, two peer reviews mixed up their notes, and the whole mess was thrown into ChatGPT for a final polish. The result? A confused, lifeless story that feels like it’s trying to be clever but just ends up exhausting.

The only saving grace here was the dynamic between Jess and Frida, which was actually kind of nice… but apparently not important enough to matter by the time the finale rolled around.

Oh, and because it’s 2024, of course they had to shoehorn in something about crypto and vapes. Because why not, right?

At least the ending was funny—I’ll give them that. But overall, this movie just isn’t worth the time.

Pixar’s jazz-infused meditation on existence sings where others preach. Foxx’s middle-school teacher learns life’s purpose isn’t in spotlight dreams, but in sidewalk pizza and subway sunlight. The Great Before dazzles, but Earth’s quiet magic steals the show. A masterpiece of being.

Flow (2024)

A breathtaking, wordless odyssey, *Flow* sweeps us through a cat’s quiet transformation—from solitude to selflessness—against stunning painted backdrops and a score that ripples with emotion. With no humans in sight, the film leaves us to ponder survival, change, and the weight of companionship. Mystifying yet deeply moving, *Flow* is a journey you feel as much as you watch. #FlowMovie #FilmReview #CinematicBeauty

Heretic (2024)

Heretic starts with promise but quickly devolves into one-sided, heavy-handed monologuing. The film fails to provide compelling counterarguments, making debates feel pointless. What begins as an intriguing discussion on faith ends up a shallow exercise in reinforcing the protagonist’s perspective.
