Apr 07, 2019A buddy comedy with perception, wit, an edge, and balls, we are taken into the crossroads of modern urban living - downtown Oakland, baby! - where clear cut roads are hard to find, much less follow, and where the divisions between us are worth an ass-kicking. One of the buds is on probation and trying to change his circumstance. The other should be on probation...at the very least. Preachy sometimes, but always electrifying. Good stuff.Kevin M.

Jan 19, 2019Spectacularly well made, and even weirdly kind of relatable in parts, Blindspotting may not come away being my favourite movie of the year or anything, but it's the sort of one that I would absolutely not be mad about taking home the big awards. Absolutely felt these characters. The only movie in literally as long as I can remember, that actually gave me nightmares.Gimly M Super Reviewer

Jan 15, 2019BLINDSPOTTING (3 1/2 Stars) A tad overstuffed...oh who am I kidding...it's completely overstuffed in that first time director kinda way...but it's filled with energy, passion and a unique look at friendship, race, gentrification, and how we see or don't see each other simultaneously. David Diggs and Rafael Casal, who co-wrote, take a buddy stoner comedy and turn it on its ear. It spins its wheels at times, but there's something fresh and bold about it nonetheless. Like the inferior SORRY TO BOTHER YOU, it has a lot going on, but our two BLINDSPOTTING leads make you care.Glenn G Super Reviewer

Dec 26, 2018It is hard to see an intelligent film that transits so smoothly from buddy comedy to serious drama within a structure that is essentially Shakespearean, with characters that never seem less than real and a hard-hitting racial statement delivered with the necessary acuity and perception.Carlos M Super Reviewer
