This man (or woman) speaketh the freaking truth 1,000%!!! Hollywood has its own rulebook it has created for what constitutes an injury and how severe or crippling that injury will be and there's a visual shorthand that's been taught to all of us over the years. Fall off a ten story building? It's okay, you're unhurt because you landed in a dumpster. Get shot anywhere but the heart or the head? Get up and keep going, you wimp! What also cracks me up is how they show getting knocked unconscious to be easy and convenient, with no ill effects afterward. Christopher Nolan is a frequent offender of this one, watch how bad buys barely get tapped and hit the floor in the last Batman movie in his trilogy. In the real world, it takes a huge amount of a force to knock someone unconscious, and if you are out for more than a second or two it's virtually guaranteed you will have permanent brain damage. Getting punched and being knocked out for an hour like they show in the movies and you're waking up a vegetable.

I know that is an established trope, but I always find it very funny that in the superhero genre punches, bruises and falls are not only non-lethal but they are never handicapping. Daredevil is resolute to not kill anyone, however he throws baddies out of four story buildings and beat them to a pulp. Yeah. In the real world if the bad guy survives (unlikely) he probably won't walk ever again.

Three weeks late... but for the pupil question it depends on the type of blind. If it's neurological on both eyes, no response. If just the retinas on one side are affected with both neural pathways to both sets of muscles still intact, a light in the perfectly fine eye can still trigger the constriction of the blind eye. Now if the blindness is do to something closer to the brain and less so the retinas and their pathways/ reflexive pathways, pupilary response stays intact. There are probably a bunch of little scenarios all with different outcomes
