Blow Out

"I know the acting isn't that great, but I was surprised by how suspenseful the plot shaped up to be, as well as some tense moments, as a man tries to prove that a major crime happened when no one else will believe him. It was strange to see John Lithgow in a role that didn't suit him at all. John Travolta and Nancy Allen do a fair job in their respective roles. Warning: ⚠️ Scenes of female nudity."

"Stellar. A great film to watch leading up to the elections"

"what are we doing. the cinematography was so good i think we forgot a few things. where was the mystery? they told us everything straight up from each perspective. where were the likeable characters? everyone talked in circles. the ending was REVOLTING. just an unpleasant experience i wish the plot matched the gorgeous visuals. "

"Great shots, great characters, its like if Chinatown was with Travolta instead of Nicholson. Absolutely love mysterious plot lines you have to follow. High ass rewatchability "

"This IMO is a retelling of a French movie called “Blow Up” in which a photographer uses similar skills to solve a crime. One of my favorite travolta movies. "

"This film was a very solid watch. The premise had me interested throughout the whole movie. The main cast was superb, especially John Lithgow as the main villain. The way the film experimented with sound to help tell the story i thought was great. Cinematography was also very solid, especially when it came to the wide, landscape shots. The only negative I have on this film is that the pacing died down during the second act due to a ton of exposition being laid out, but the film picks up in the final act. Blow Out is a political thriller that has aged very well, especially in today's political climate. "

"NoT many movies like this out there! Praise De Palma!! "

"A great film from a great director. Watch it."

"Saw this as a child… very scary in a low-key way"

"Travolta at his best. Very interesting take on a murder crime movie. A ton of cameos "
