Title: Blindness Post by: schild on December 21, 2008, 03:06:04 AM I could go on for hours about how angry this movie made me. But somehow I finished it.

I hated the first hour, because the plot was so beyond implausible that I thought the entire movie was rendered stupid. And I don't mean the plausibility of the existence of a disease that causes blindness. That's the most believable element of the movie. The government response is straight out of the dystopian high school poetry of a goth kid. The epidemic drifted up and down in scale like robots in a cheap Japanese cartoon. One moment it's shutting the whole city down and the next it's 80 people in a cafeteria. But once you recognize what sort of parable it is and give up on the situation actually making sense, it becomes worth a rental Edit: OMG DUPE (http://forums.f13.net/index.php?topic=15657.0) Title: Re: Blindness Post by: Rishathra on May 08, 2009, 02:10:26 PM Your avatar fits this post surprisingly well. Especially the edit.
