Our take
Blink Twice looks like a rich-island holiday and is not. You get constant f-word language, champagne and weed, and a story about women being harmed and made to forget. Sexual violence is the core, not a side beat. Older teens and adults only. Do not treat this as a party movie
Story (may spoil tone)
When tech billionaire Slater King meets cocktail waitress Frida at his fundraising gala, he invites her to join him and his friends on a dream vacation on his private island. But despite the epic setting, beautiful people, ever-flowing champagne, and late-night dance parties, Frida can sense that there’s something sinister hiding beneath the island’s lush façade.

Talk after watching
- Luxury is used as a trap. How do you teach teens to distrust a room that feels flattering?
- Forgetting is part of the harm. Why does that make it harder to get help?
