Holy shit, this was so good. Allow me to reference critic reviews:
Noel Murray and Scott Tobias of The A.V. Club put Blow Out at #1 of their list of De Palma's besThe quintessential De Palma film, this study of a movie craftsman investigating a political cover-up marries suspense, sick humor, sexuality, and leftist cynicism into an endlessly reflective study of art imitating life imitating art.

In 2023, Time selected Blow Out as part of their list 100 Best Movies of the Past 10 Decades, praising it as "a film filled with mistrust, one where the ghosts of Chappaquiddick and the Zapruder film lurk in the corners."

one of my favorite De Palma movies. a really original telling of a deep conspiracy, and the set design is to die for the whole time.

Sorry to M. Night Shyamalan but De Palma has achieved THE Philly movie. itâs gripping. itâs funny. itâs syrupy. and importantly it is so sweaty

2025 is this year of just doing things! idk why i always put off things and just âdo it laterâ. I COULD JUST ,YOU KNOW, CRAAAAAZY IDEA, DO IT NOW? i have only rewatched 2 films this year (blth of which, are films i have only first this year!!) AAAAAND i feel great :) itâs so refreshing to consume new media for the sake of just trying something new, not for the sake of checking it off a list! SO try new things because it will 100% benefit you somehow
