Blindsided: The Game (2018) - A Clayton J. Barber Film

[@EricJacobusOfficial]

Blindsided: The Game begins with the original 12-minute Blindsided short. Be sure to keep watching, as the short has expanded to 45 minutes!

[@M.W.K6996]

I see. It's Zatōichi, pulling off a Matt Murdock look.

[@shoestringmovies6530]

so gooooood!!!!!!! great job seriously can't wait to see the next short film

[@husty112]

It´s a rip of old Japanese Zatoichi movies

​@@husty112Gee, it's almost as if you think anyone cares...

[@kabatsky]

I honestly don't know how is this possible that this KZbin movie has a better fights and action than the last Matrix... A great turn on the Zatoichi and Blind Fury, nicely paced, good casting, great cinematography. This is an amazing movie, beautiful in its simplicity!

[@EricJacobusOfficial]

Because we like the audience. Hollywood hates the audience.

[@kabatsky]

​@@EricJacobusOfficial Obviously, I can tell right away. The number of preparations that went into making this movie is mindblowing, you clearly care about what you're doing and your audience! I mean you've been learning to act like a blind person, and you've been learning to work with the sword (a lot of iaido training as well, I assume). Honestly, this short movie was one of the best media experiences I had in a year or so! Thank you!

[@walterguttmann1013]

I guess I waited 6 years to watch this gem, it popped up on Facebook. My only regret is that I never saw or heard of this earlier

[@isabelkevinking7430]

Yo veo más películas por KZbin que por las otras plataformas, peor la de Netflix qué es demasiada ficción, sensacionalismo y cargadas de violencia sangrienta.

[@hakimdiwan5101]

Random Facebook video brought me here thanks to comments for revealing name of this movie.

[@queenayacodobae9421]

Oh my goodness. This is one of the best movies I have ever watched at 5 something am. I don't like profanity yet when I saw how the blind man could maneuver and manipulate his way, I was convinced it would be a good movie. Then it became a serious comedy. I was literally screaming and at this time in the morning what could my neighbors be thinking? I was hysterical. It was hilarious. A really great film. I will share it and watch it again. Thank you sooooo much. So many people call themselves friends with all of their body parts and can see well don't do 1/4i of what the blind man did for friendship. Peace and love for life.

[@SailHatinSoap]

@@tararocksong5085 it's a direct rip off though. Like, even down to some of the dialogue. Zero creativity went into this.

[@tararocksong5085]

@@SailHatinSoap, the question is how Walter was blind is the question? Was it by accident or birth?

[@SailHatinSoap]

@@tararocksong5085 not giving him a back story doesn't change the lack of creativity that went into this. Imagine making a movie about a billionaire, playboy, philanthropist in a metal suit and thinking you're being original.

This is the perfect blend. Classic 90's Action/Original Story/The filming is nostalgic but new/The fight scenes highlighted the talent of the actors. There needs to be a sequel, It stands on its own so well and I haven't seen something as great as this in a very long time.

His message is all about hope and salvation, inviting everyone to find peace, purpose, and joy by connecting with our loving Creator. It's like having a loving friend who's always got your back, guiding you towards a life full of meaning and fulfillment. So, why not give it a shot? Experience the amazing love and grace of Jesus - it's a journey that'll light up your life with hope and happiness. Come as you are, and let Jesus' embrace show you a whole new world of love and acceptance. Trust me, it's totally worth it!

As a long time fan of Zato Ichi, I will say this with no reservation. This was better in every way than Rutger Hauger in Blind Fury. This is what that film should have been. I would love to see this as a TV show. Or a line of movies like the original Zato Ichi. I especially loved the humanization of Walter at the beginning that shows his skills and weaknesses as a blind man.where he easily bakes a pie then gets the sour milk, hot sauce and glass upside down all in rapid succession. Please continue with this project.

The resemblance to Charlie's Daredevil is striking. I could have EASILY seen this as a misplaced backstory or a side arc from the daredevil series. It's not the same actor but everything about the appearance and the mannerisms... Even the jokes and the attitude are similar.
