What to Know

Critics Consensus

While well-acted and skillfully directed, Blood never quite manages to draw its themes and characters into a coherent, compelling whole.

3/5
Plenty of talent is on display in front of and behind the camera in this psychological thriller based on the acclaimed TV miniseries. Go to Full Review Sheila O'Malley RogerEbert.com 08/13/2013
3.5/4
At times, "Blood," feels like a slightly-filled-out television police procedural with better cinematography, but the performances have an almost Shakespearean grandeur. Go to Full Review V.A. Musetto New York Post 08/09/2013
1.5/4
The landscape cinematography is often eye-pleasing, but the script is labored, filled with clichs and never allows for character development. Go to Full Review Abbie Bernstein Assignment X 01/25/2019

A little more foundation in front would be a good thing, but on the whole, it works. Go to Full Review Jason Solomons The Mail on Sunday (UK) 10/31/2017

Some details jar but this is an atmospheric film with ambition and power. Go to Full Review Neely Swanson Easy Reader (California) 09/18/2017
An intense film, this is 90 minutes that will fly by and leave you as drained as the characters of this drama. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

andrea c @Charst 06/07/2021 Giallo poliziesco che ben presto diviene una specie di rivisitazione di "Delitto e Castigo". Un abuso della polizia, raccontato in maniera troppo spiccia per essere credibile, porta due fratelli poliziotti a dover nascondere il loro crimine. Il finale è abbastanza scontato viste le premesse, non ci sono aspetti particolarmente originali e nemmeno grandi spunti. See more 05/29/2021 Very good movie! A tense psychological thriller that blurred the line of good and evil ! See more 03/25/2021 Slow, tedious, dark, boring. Don't waste your time See more 12/13/2016 Gets a little overly dramatic at the end. Good performances from the cast though. See more 08/28/2015 Masterfully directed and skillfully acted. Blood diverted from the cliche crime thrillers with its adequate plot line and extreme thrill. See more farah r @Farah 08/28/2015 Rather than being another crime thriller about self destruction by guilt, Blood is fresh and intriguing thanks to its leads, directing, and pleasant cinematography.
