This movie is kind of old.
2011 visuals just don't cut it anymore. Can't imagine watching a K-drama movie that old. Give me some high-quality cinematography and special effects, not something that looks like it belongs on a dusty DVD.
 
"Blind" tries to be too many things at once. Police procedural, serial killer thriller, AND a disability drama? It just felt like a mishmash of genres that never quite gelled.I just couldn't connect with the characters. Min Soo-Ah's whole backstory felt rushed, and the detective partner was just forgettable. Maybe with better character development, I could have cared about the outcome.
 
I just can't get over how disappointing "Blind" was. I mean, it had such a promising premise, but when it came down to it, the execution just fell flat. The actors did their best, I guess, but the script was just so weak. I was totally hoping for a super suspenseful thriller, but instead, it turned out to be so predictable and totally forgettable.

I don't know how "Blind" got such high ratings – it's a complete mystery to me! The plot was just way too predictable, the dialogue was incredibly cheesy, and don't even get me started on that way-too-convenient ending. It's just another one of those K-Drama movies that gets a lot of hype but seriously lacks substance.

Honestly, there are way better options out there if you're looking for a good K-Drama fix. This one just didn't deliver, and I can't believe it's getting praised like it is.
 
This movie sounds like it could be a great portrayal of overcoming disability. It's important to see characters with different abilities succeeding in various fields, not just the typical ones. Definitely interested in how they showcase the protagonist's heightened senses in the investigation.
 
Okay, I admit it - "Blind" totally won me over. I was worried it would be cheesy melodrama, but it actually had a lot of heart. Sure, Min Soo-Ah makes a mistake, but she doesn't let it define her. And the whole fake witness thing adds a great layer of whodunit mystery. Plus, the detective is a great partner, supportive but not afraid to challenge her.
