Never Blink

The concept of this film was intriguing. What other realities exist when we blink? However what the film started with, it quickly lost due to poor effects, silly dialogue, stilted acting and an absurd ending.

Some specifics: the make- up person should never work again; all the female characters had so much makeup on they looked like prostitutes. Characters blurt out lines that lack context. The adopted brother of the main researcher declares, "I am black and gay" without ever developing that story line further. The dream sequences are utterly slow and boring. The deep voice of the "monster" announces another killing where the victim never tries to escape. In one scene a nurse, soon to be victim, enters her locked car then realizes she "dropped" her keys about 20 feet away. The film is loaded with over and under acting, bad effects, implausable plot twists, and ludicrous tag lines "say hello to your f@@@ing offspring" In the end, a very original premise was destroyed by a bad script, bad directing, bad acting, bad visual effects, and bad execution. I wanted to blink, hoping that this film would disappear. Sadly, it didn't.

This seems like it's gonna be a great movie for horror and sci-fi fans all around. I'm rating it a 7 as the trailer really caught my interest.

I know a few individuals who worked on this and they are raving. Not only because they worked on it but because they enjoyed doing it! Anything that's enjoyable usually is a great watch! I cannot wait for it to come out to all audiences around the world to see! B movies will always have a special place in my heart And this movie looks as if it'll really get the B movie train going again and the screams and creepiness is what WE WANT! Cannot wait to see it.

I was skeptical at first, but wow, this a fun, visual and interesting horror movie with a fresh concept mixing horror, multiverses and good ole fashioned terror and gore. Great soundtrack and imagery highlight this film with cool creatures and a sexy strong female lead that kicks ass. Tatjana is rising star as I enjoyed her role in Monsters of Man. And Dr. Conrad was very cool too. I think the film could have been shorter but the film does offer a lot character development and theory behind the multiverse world. There are some funny and cute parts that were also enjoyable and the creature was super cool. In summary is this film perfect? No but it's nice to see a indie horror film do something different instead of the old haunted house/slasher scenario. I thoroughly enjoyed it..

While I had indeed never heard about this 2025 horror movie titled "Never Blink", I will say that the movie's cover was interesting enough to make me stop and take notice. And with it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to check out what directors Christopher Saint Booth and Philip Adrian Booth had to offer.

Writers Christopher Saint Booth, Philip Adrian Booth and Ami Orava didn't exactly deliver a stellar script here. The narrative was slow paced and sluggish, and there just simply wasn't enough of anything interesting to keep me interested. I felt my attention span wane from the movie several times throughout the course of the 113 minutes that the movie ran for.

The young cast members that were supposed to be medical students, just didn't really have a believable medical student vibe to them, and that made it rather difficult to take them serious in those roles.

I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, which was actually something that spoke in favor of the movie, as I enjoy watching new and unfamiliar talents on the screen. The acting performances were fair, though hardly something to write home about.

"Never Blink" looks and felt like an ambitious low budget horror movie.

Now, the movie plays for 113 minutes, nearly two hours. So it is nearly two hours of general boredom. And it was quite a struggle to sit through. So the movie would have benefitted tremendously from a more round-handed trim in post editing.

Visually then you're not in for anything grand. The light-up goggles that the so-called medical students wore, well they were from Wish or AliExpress. I have a pair just like them that I bought off of AliExpress for my son.

The movie's cover was actually the best thing about the movie. A sad fact, but a true fact.

My rating of "Never Blink" lands on a most generous three out of ten stars.

First of all, the concept is incredible. Everything else is second to that, because an incredible concept sticks in your mind for ages after you watch something. I've had Never Blink on my mind for days, and came back to write this review. Sure, the budget isn't the highest, but plenty of cult classics have gotten by on less. Most of the bad reviews on here seem to be from people who are more scared of a diverse cast than they are of the actual horror, which is pathetic and not the movie's fault. If you want a fascinating, suspenseful, and intense watch with plenty of sick action moments, you should check out Never Blink.
