Blink got me from the opening scene. I knew right away that 1) this guy can direct, and 2)here's a main character I want to know more about. A bartender/artist who steals food labels from grocery stores... How could one not want to learn more about her life? I certainly did. Switching back and forth between several story lines of twenty something characters, the plot leads us all to a bar where the strength of the story unravels in a night of dysfunction and embarrassing moments. The characters were all people we could relate to in college, which made it all the more enjoyable to watch. The dialogue was strong. The movie was full of neat and unique shots and the cinematography was outstanding. At times the bar seemed kind of dark, but hey, it's a bar. It's supposed to be dark to hide the patron's flaws. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this film, and the indie soundtrack pretty much wrapped it up in a neat little bow. Bravo to the director and writer for proving that you don't need to spend millions to create a good movie, because I've seen plenty of 'blockbusters' that were a complete waste of time. Blink is most assuredly worth it.
