Blink Twice - 2024 - 6/10

Frida and Jess, wait-staff for an exclusive, A-list gala, miraculously catch a VIP’s eye.
They are invited back to his private island for gourmet meals, endless sun, designer drugs.
Hallucinogens or narcotics, with spinning side effects, compounded by the massive blunts everyone tokes.
Island servants, mocking and unsettling, refer to Frida as the red rabbit.

Slow burn thriller will test the patience of some during the leisurely first half.
Compensations include stylish photo compositions, and a soured fairytale undercurrent.
The finale, while not clichéd, does feel contrived, and I wish it had been better thought out.
