Very solid film with really solid performances from the two leads Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal who I have never seen in anything else before, but am now looking forward to their work in the future. Based on the trailer which didn't impress me at all I was honestly expecting this to be a tonal mess, but surprisingly the dark comedy elements and the more serious dramatic elements actually meshed pretty damn well IMO. I would even say it worked better here than in something like BlacKkKlansman which I did enjoy, but I think this movie leaves more of a lasting impression.

B+

This movie reminded of Dave Chappelle's intro into his famous Lil Jon sketches. Blindspotting is a film where a bunch of things are about to happen but then nothing ever does. Good performances by Thomas Jefferson and Crazy White Guy, but I can't help but feel like I wasted my time with this one.

I remember watching this during awards season and liking it but don't remember much about it now. I even recommended it to a few friends. I believe I gave it a B/B+ rating back then.
