Blackout (2014) dives into a near-future where our reliance on technology and constant connectivity is put to the test. It paints a stark picture of society spiraling into chaos after a sudden blackout. The tone is tense, almost claustrophobic, with a slow burn that builds anxiety as the characters grapple with their new reality. Practical effects add a gritty realism that's refreshing in a sea of CGI. Performances feel authentic, capturing the raw panic and desperation. What stands out here is the exploration of themes around consumerism and dependency—really makes you think about our modern lives. It may not be perfect, but its distinctive approach to storytelling is quite thought-provoking.
