I am glad that I didn't pay to see this movie. This movie seems to be made by the bunch of film student straight out of school. Story is incoherent and totally meaningless. Actors are not beliavable and especially artist(Salvator Xuereb) is just delivering a stereotypical performance. Whole movie was basically just depiction of some painting, paranoia, partying and crying over a dead body. Music was totally of the mood. There was like action music on suspenseful moments. I was left with an impression that composer probably didn't see the movie when he was making music.Definitely the highlight of the movie was when charming young Allyssa(Nicole Rayburn) was posing naked - such beauty! And art works in the movie weren't that bad. This movie could serve well as a example how to not make a movie.

I thought that the hideous red face on the main character's canvas looked familiar so I looked it up and, yes, it's almost line for line the famous sketch "Head studies" by Leonardo da Vinci at the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest. Of course, it could be just a coincidence, but I think it's a subliminal message, something like, "Go to the museum, go to the museum, don't waste your money, don't waste your money..." Anyway, it starts out interesting, with good acting on the part of a group of interesting practically unknowns. Then it ever so slowly gets spookier and cornier in a grossly subtle and confusing fashion. They use lots of contrived false leads to nowhere in particular until the end, when it slaps you in the face and blatantly says to you, "You should have gone to the museum, you wasted your money..." I just wish I could spoil the ending for you, but for the most part, it was so boring that it's a blur.

After reading some of the comments given here I am beginning to think that I have seen another movie. I understand that this is a independent low budget movie. So what. Only for this fact people are praising this movie. At least that is the impression I am getting. A higher budget for this movie wouldn't matter much since "Blur" seems to be depending on the story and not style or special effects. I think thrillers (in particular) have to be judged on plot and creativity. In "Blur" the plot seems to be going in a lot of directions without an actual goal. This is obviously to mislead you. Nothing wrong with this as long there are subtle hints for us to find out what is going on. In here lies the problem. We only get one perspective and that is from the main character. So we automatically assume that what he sees is actually happening. Not once we get a clue from other characters that something is wrong with him. The only thing that is said that he is paranoid. I did had my doubts on Adrien's behavior,but could not make out if it was scripted or bad acting. The surprising twist really comes out of nowhere and only in the epilogue it gets explained. This has got to be one of the worst twists I have ever seen. Come on how could I accept it without a single clue given in advance. This is not being creative. It's laziness. And why is this movie being called a horror movie. There are no supernatural elements involved. Apart from a scare or two and the main character who believes he is a psychic there is nothing going on. This movie has been very disappointing and certainly is not worth watching.

Although I was sketchy while first recommended via NetFlix, I decided to check it out. Let me first say, I am a HUGE Nicole Rayburn fan, I think she is highly underrated and i will watch anything she is in. Yes, I've seen "Candy Stripers" and "Boo!" The film starts out with this great title sequence showing these great art pieces... with vivid vibrant colors. We then are taken into the art infused work of Adrian Jonas, who is painting one of his pieces in preparation for his big show in SoHo. The day takes a turn for the worst when Adrian has a vision that something bad is going to happen.The film is not what I expected, i seriously thought I was going to be watching a bad horror movie, with bad acting and bad dialog. I was pleasantly surprised when I was proved wrong.The film is both intelligent and intriguing. I was taken into this world of this artist who could possibly be on the verge of something extremely creative or extremely terrifying.It almost felt documentary-style. Almost like I was peaking into someone's private life, where I shouldn't be. Salvatore Xuereb was just astonishing, he really took the role to the next level and gave you such a great feeling. Wendy Carter was also great as the wife who may be in danger. Jana Kolesarova was a true gem and a surprise when she came onto screen. She really was the true standout for me personally. And of course, Nicole Rayburn was my personal favorite. I hope this girl does more, I really enjoy her.At the end of this film, I was in shock. I couldn't believe what I just saw and I was blown away. After second viewing, I pieced more information together and I was extremely excited and enthusiastic.I would recommend this film to everyone. This is a film that you want to talk about after you've seen it.
