Jennifer 8 (1992)
7/10
not blind at all

Bruce Robinson's "Jennifer 8" isn't a great movie but worth seeing. While it does follow the detective-suspects-pattern-in-murders-and-has-to-protect-someone formula, Andy Garcia's and Uma Thurman's performances give the movie its strength. Obviously it's towards the end that the movie really gets going, but even up to that point there's some clever stuff. For the life of me I cannot figure out why any person would define as masterpieces the creepy "Home Alone", the obnoxious "Everyone Says I Love You", the vacuous "Eyes Wide Shut" and the pointless "Man on the Moon" when "Jennifer 8" actually has an interesting plot. Not the best movie ever made, but still one that I recommend. Good performances also come from Lance Henriksen, Kathy Baker and John Malkovich.
