Review of Blink

Blink (2001)
10/10
A self-depreciating look at the daily grind, with a twist ending!
19 April 2002
I saw "Blink" at Worldfest Houston this month, where it picked up a well-deserved award. Short and snappy, anyone who has had to work a 9 to 5 job (and hated it) easily identifies with our star. The audience laughed and groaned as our star's day unfolds, and gasped along with the twist ending. On the surface, the film is first humorous, then shocking. Underneath, it exposes, in very dramatic fashion, a potential dire consequence of falling into the narrow, cubicle-based routine where ignorance is, sadly, not bliss. It forces you to think about what you're REALLY missing when you blunder through life without paying attention to the little things. The film itself is well done, snappy, and haunting. You have to see it to appreciate it.
