Trivia:
Dana Stevens's research into the screenplay revealed that delayed vision is not fictitious. moreGoofs:
Plot holes: Emma grabs a gun from the police car and fires off shots at her attacker. It is extremely unlikely that she has ever handled a gun before due to her blindness. Yet she handles the gun expertly, even managing to know that there is a safety catch and how to deactivate it. moreQuotes:
Emma Brody: The last time I looked I was a little girl. And I, I blink, and I look like my mother. moreSoundtrack:

A good, absorbing thriller with an unusual idea at its core, "Blink" also enjoys the benefits of good acting and direction, and some truly heartstopping scenes. What struck me also was its success in making the audience share the "Emma Brody's" confusion when faced with the the sights of the city around her for the first time in years. The very last scene is, perhaps, a bit pat, but we've had our fun by then and can indulge the filmmakers here. Recommended.
