Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Steineded How sad is this?

BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
sabinabellet First I have read the book and couldn't stop my self watching it's movie. Movie is good , liked it but seriously book was better. Even though it will be my recommendation to who wants to watch a dramatically interesting movie.
matthewjoseph-54651 I was surprised to find this film not just engrossing but incredibly well shot. With a white color pallet that is seldom put to screen Blindness is about a city that is suddenly engulfed by something that causes instant blindness. Exquisitely shot and well-paced this is a film that will make for something that will surely fascinate the audience. 7/10 (Great premise well executed).
Eric_Cubed Worst ever. It's the worst ever because it full of great actors and solid performances that do things that make no sense. Julienne Moore can see, and yet she waits and waits, allowing her friends to be murdered and raped by blind people, while she does nothing. It is infuriating because it is a great idea, and could have been so much better. And this is why I give it one out of ten. It's not that it's as bad as say, Astro Zombies, but it is the true loss of potential that turns it into a horrible film. The worse part though, is when the director tries to imbue the thing with some kind of zero affect binge of loftiness and significance, like when it rains and the roaring violins try to make us feel something emotionally transcendent. Rent Day of the Triffids instead.
RevRonster "Blindness" starts off fantastically. There's some great mystery to it, a whole lot of intrigue, great acting, the potential for some really sympathetic characters, and it has some great commentary about how the human race treats each other when sickness and handicaps come into play. However, the film has a running length that proves to be too long and it sucks away a lot of the potential the film had.At too many points in the story, the narrative drags and, when you combine the fact that various points in the story feel like episodes in something that, overall, feels more like a mini-series than anything else, it makes for a film that feels like it just keeps going and going. Additionally, too many characters are underdeveloped, underused, or just established and forgotten about."Blindness" had a lot of potential working for it and is, for the most part, super interesting and partially-captivating but the elements that work against it hold it back badly and keep it from being something more.Greetings!

Ron and if you feel like reading more of my rants, ramblings, bad jokes, geek references, and other movie reviews (like a more in-depth look at "Blindness" and other films that have potential but never hit it) you can visit my blog at revronmovies.blogspot.com. If you don't want to visit because a horse just walked into a bar and you're all waiting for the bartender to say, "Why the long face?" and is, instead, just being stupid and calling Animal Control, you don't need to visit.
