Audience Member I chose Blind (2011) solely based on the fact that Nayanthara's next upcoming film, Netrikkann, is based on this Korean thriller. The unique plotline, where a blind ex-cop looks to track down a serial killer based on a chance encounter, is a surefire hook for any movie aficionado. An adorable and nuanced lead performance from Kim Ha-nuel and moreover, her beloved pet 'Seul'gi' have you instantly rooting for their perilous journey to the truth. Yoo Seung-ho is wonderfully restrained in his role as a problematic witness while Jo Hee-bong delightfully inserts dollops of dry humour in the tensest of scenes to leave you pleasantly surprised. It is Yang Yeong-Jo's fearsome villain that truly takes the cake in terms of performances, balancing the outward gentleman persona brilliantly with the psychopath underneath. Blind is engaging, emotional, suspenseful and cathartic. In a role seemingly tailor-made for her, if Nayanathra and team manage to keep the audience on a knife-edge with the same suspenseful narration, they will have an industry hit on their hands. Highly recommended.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member spannender thriller mit ein paar schwächen aber durchaus unterhaltsam Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty good thriller with a bumbling cop, a bratty kid who turns good (no surprises), and a blind woman. Formulaic but reasonably well executed. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member 6/10: From the same director that brings you Arang (2006), this like in most of Korean movies, it adds personal drama into its thriller/horror elements which will bring you closer to the characters and allows you to identify with them because of its character development. Definitely a worthwhile watch! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member A worthy thriller in the vein of Wait Until Dark. Ha-Neul Kim plays, Min Soo-ah, a rookie cop who becomes blind after an accident. When she becomes witness to a possible hit and run, Soo-ah must find a serial killer before he finds her. The thriller works because of the fine character development. The main actress is very good, haunted yet still an intelligent and versatile civilian. The younger teen grows on you after he stops being a jerk, and the cop partner is entertaining too. I must also give props to the actor who played the despicable villain, he played a nasty sicko very well. With some truly heart-stopping set pieces, Blind is a decent thriller that maybe extends the climax a bit too much. However, the good combination of suspense and character development make for a phenomenal thrill ride. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
