I love this movie so much
Simply Perfect
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Blind is a great little film that harkens back to the type of romance movies Hollywood pumped out back in the 1940s. The biggest difference being that Blind is only a romance film on the surface. At its core, Blind is a character study about two people who have had their lives turned upside down and only by opening up to one another are they able to start healing.Blind is far from perfect but I don't think the writer and director were aiming for perfection. I certainly wasn't expecting a broad, sweeping epic. I adjusted my expectations at the start and sat back to learn about these characters and the growth they experience.Blind was made on a limited budget but all the money is up on the screen. I think it's a sad state of affairs that there are hungry writers and directors who could have made a dozen films like Blind on what the studio spends to make a single Iron Man or Avengers movie.If you're willing to meet it halfway, you may wind up liking Blind as much as I did. See you at the movies.
For the first half I thought this was going to be an intelligent and creative story (something that hasn't been told a thousand times already), but then it just became pedestrian predictable from that point on. A quadrangle love affair with cheating, getting caught, changing your mind and the obvious changing tit again. Making it all worse was a predictable, maudlin, everyone ends up with their new lover happily ever after ending. As far as acting Baldwin did a respectable job with his, at times overacted, blind character while Moore was "just there". Really positive reviews to some extent are fandom followers of Baldwin & Moore together with a slight inclination toward seeing Moore act.
I am not one for watching a bunch or "Romantic" Movies, however because of the strong lead actors, i gave this movie a shot.If you are someone who enjoys great cinematography, as well as an intelligent film made for a more mature audience, you will enjoy this movie. This film is filled with perfect lighting and camera angles throughout the entirety of the movie, which greatly help the viewers grasp the emotions of the story.Blind is very good at keeping the viewer interested through the duration of the film.. My only gripe with this movie is that it is predictable in the sense that most Romantic movies end the same, however in this case they pulled it off very well.
Do you judge a movie by the number of car chases and explosions? If so, then BLIND is not for you. BLIND is an intelligent film with a consistent pace that allows for strong character development. Alex, Demi & Dylan are perfectly cast and all deliver strong performances. There's a twist that caught me off guard, and the ending is incredibly satisfying. BLIND is a winner!
