Deliciously Terrifying

Warning: Spoilers
never have i ever seen a movie so thrilling that i have actually dreaded finishing it because i was having so much fun. there isn't a single part in the entire movie where you feel like you can take a second to look down at the bucket of popcorn and grab a handful because you know that as soon as you do you will miss something important and you wouldn't want to do that. right from the beginning with the airport scene the audience is given a sort of creepy feeling about what is going on and we cheer for the woman because she is portrayed similarly to a julia roberts in pretty woman (a prostitute trying to get away from her demanding pimp). although its clear that this person has never been the woman's friend and they will certainly never will. the entire premise of hepburn's blindness is amazing. i heard that they had to give her special contact lenses because her eyes were too intense for a blind person. isn't that mind-blowing? everything took off smoothly and the whole flight was without turbulence. although the landing was a tad jolty it left the viewer satisfied non the less. even when it seems as though hepburn's character is about to get killed she manages to get out of the situation smoothly. despite our crestfallen feelings of her surely impending doom after seeing her struggling to pick up a few household cutlery, she manages to prove not only to us but also to her husband that she can be a champion blind.
