Blindness

What would happen if the whole world went blind? This movie provides one possible scenario for that event. Brilliantly assembled, with cinematography and musical score bringing it all together, this is an absolutely wonderful, if at some times dragging and hard-to-watch movie. And Julianne Moore, despite being 48 years old, is still an absolutely beautiful actress.


9/10

I've heard excellent things about this director, and mixed things about this film, so I'm looking forward to seeing this and City of God next weekend.

Blindness is an Agony&Ecstasy movie. So well done, so realistic, just so... HIGH QUALITY movie-making. And yet, the premise is incredibly depressing. Thus, I am making a new warning label for movies:

Agony&Ecstacy: you've been warned.
