I really admire how much thought Zoë put into the creation of this film, you can tell how passionate she is about it.

[jadeallen]

This movie was the best of the year for me, hands down! I can see Zoe and Jordan Peele creating something amazing.

[Scarrot]

This movie was IMMACULATE i'm so proud of Zoe and cant wait to see what else she creates.Up there with Luca Guadanino!😍

[demacto]

Zoe is such a smart and unique soul that has brought such a brilliant take on what society should acknowledge of yet still bring a thrilling and intense film to the mainstream world of film making. I am in awe of her work in this and such an amazing performance from the cast and sound design craftsmanship. 👏🏻

7:18 this is so beautiful so so beautiful and shows me so much faith in the industry. i think what makes this film so profound is the care behind it and specifically the care that zoe put into it. additionally i really enjoy what the cast said abt zoe’s style as a director and how she was able to make it so much herself when it’s her first time. as an artist it’s something i always grapple with bc i don’t want to put out things that aren’t 100% me but at the same time ppl will always say “you gotta start somewhere” but like no, so it’s super inspirational seeing someone’s first of something be 100% them. i’m rly so happy on the artistic side to have seen this film

[Roseforthethorns]

I just got home from this and I feel haunted by it. I also deeply appreciate the opening trigger warning.

I want to see someone put together all of the flash fragments we see throughout the film.

[ItsNaeBihhh.Daaah]

This was such an amazing movie !! Very happy I saw this with some good friends . Can’t wait to see it AGAIN . Man

[chasti]

Insane movie. Wow. Broke me to pieces.

[gksmith-mccarthy]

"I will not ever let you drive a Cybertruck." Channing - after hating you as the credits rolled (which means you did a great job playing your role), I now love you again!

[bananasssASMR]

this movie was i liked it but it made me feel so wild. really makes you think about things especially with everything thats going on with epstein's island and diddy and a bunch of wild things in the industry and with rich people....very interesting

[natpei]

I loved the movie, such a good night at the cinema

[nial.]

Need Zoe to be in her director era more and give a couple more films in the future

[EmmaRonan]

That movie they mentioned in the interview- tropic thunder.. is that any good?

[shora]

She is the most exciting director out there right now. I thought Blink Twice was fantastic.

[jessicascott]

"Blink twice's" stands out more as a movie title. Def more memorable than blink twice.

[luciehenrike]

Best movie of all times. Wish I had seen it in the cinema!!

[nadedjadannevik]

Zoe is super smart and witty. I loved the movie.🥰

[helenknight]

Good to have a film that points at those in power who do such things. P Diddy and his friends and Epstein. Though I wonder who knows more and isn’t telling. Also would have liked to have seen the other women be more realistic and tactful when they remembered and teamed up, and played along and found a way out together.

[daddygarcia]

BROO!! GIVE US THE GAMBIT MOVIE!!! MAKE A NAME FOR YOURSELF BRUH!!🎉🎉🎉

[WithAraR]

Why would she want to make a movie about women being taken advantage of at an island.
