Review of Bloodwork

Bloodwork (2012)
7/10
An Unmemorable but Pretty Entertaining Title
25 February 2020
The movie was pretty entertaining. Well-shot and technically great. There are some really funny jokes told in the beginning of the movie. It has a very interesting premise, which I don't remember having seen in other movies, at least not in the fresh way it is presented here. The scientific explanation for why we are "disgusted" by certain things was excellent and I learned something new. The characters were all likable, even the seemingly bad guys. I didn't know who to root for. I guess I liked both sides, because neither side was actually bad. You find out why when the movie is about to end. The acting was superb to say the least. Actually, I was surprised by the number of good actors and actresses in this movie. They were all good-looking and knew what they were doing. The movie was not really scary, but it was entertaining. I could compare it to The Lazarus Effect (2015) in style, which interestingly enough has the exact same rating on IMDb. All in all, if you're looking to be entertained, do watch this, but if you want to get scared, look elsewhere. This is science-fiction, Thriller, Mystery with some Horror elements.

Final score: 7/10
