ALL I SEE IS YOU. 1.5 stars. Botched thriller about a blind woman (Blake Lively) who has her sight restored, leading to problem in her marriage (to Jason Clarke).

BLADE RUNNER 2049. 3.5 stars.

SNOWMAN. 1 star. A mutilated thriller about dismembered women, starring Michael Fassbender as a detective in Oslo on the trail of a serial killer.
