During 'Blindspotting' I kept thinking that it reminded me of another movie, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was. The reason I couldn't pin it down was because it reminded of a cross between three movies: 'Training Day', 'Clerks' and 'Friday'. It has little aspects of each blended in together to make for a unique film.
The interesting thing is that one of those movies is not like the other two in the sense that it is very serious. 'Blindspotting' has moments where it takes itself very seriously, and others where it feels like a flat-out comedy. It never really commits one way or the other. It does both well, but neither expertly.
This is a very well acted movie. The whole cast is great but especially the main two Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal. I felt like they really understood the project and what the director was trying to get out of it. They never over-act, yet they are gripping to watch. I liked 'Blindspotting' and the message it brought, but it never had that moment that made me fall in love with it.
