2.5/4

Despite its misleadingly weak title, Blood Pressure is an engaging thriller, thanks to Giroux, who makes believable and measured changes in Nicole's personality and temperament as she finds her backbone while on her mysterious journey.

Here's a small Canadian film that unfolds as a conjuring trick of a different kind, one that doesn't work so hard to please the crowd, and has more integrity and style.

2.5/5

We are left with a reasonably entertaining film that has many positives, but ultimately loses its tenuous grip on our attention.

8/10

Director Sean Garrity fashions something tense, steely, and affecting out of a premise that might've yielded an erotic fantasy if the events here weren't so rooted in its suburbanite heroine's mid-life malaise.

It seems slow-moving and soft-spoken, until all of a sudden you realize all the changes in the characters and the plotlines. Michelle Giroux takes her character's outlines and weaves them into a well-drawn persona. Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) continues to steal scenes with just her raw talent. Well-directed, you'll like this movie or you won't. That's it.

It seemed odd that she just did everything asked without question. But the whole thing wasn't too believable.

This started out as an interesting story but I didn't really care for where it eventually went...

It looks amateurish and it's a boring film. Filled with extraneous characters and scenes in this contrived story.
