Reviews for The Blackout
Dizzying visual style can't conceal the shallow, self-indulgent nature of Ferrara's sleazy erotic thriller, one of his worst pictures with a terrible performance by a miscast Matthew Modine at its center
With vacuous dialogue and little sense of character or direction, it oozes from one amateurishly conceived scene to the next.
Ferrara ... proves incapable of making distinctions between his inspired and indulgent impulses.
