Reviews
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Red-Barracuda Ten strangers are brought together at a remote desert motel one stormy night. Before long, a series of murders begins to whittle them down. But all is not what it seems.The defining factor of Identity is its twist-in-the-tail ending. It seems to have divided audiences on account of this. But I for one think it works really well. The idea of the dramas playing out being the strange fruits of some sort of conflict within the mind of a maniac with a multiple personality disorder is quite a good one and allows the story to go off in over-the-top directions with the fall back that it is after all not real and the imaginings of a psychologically troubled individual. For this reason I guess you could argue that the story could have dipped into even more surreal ideas if anything - events do seem a little more generic than they needed to be given the opportunity the central idea allows for the story to go wild and unhinged directions. The main narrative is effectively a combination of a whodunit with some slasher movie elements. It's not a classic and it could have used its potential better but it remains a nicely original take on a traditional genre nevertheless.
phoebem-49868 Thought this film was cheesy and unrealistic...but the twists were brilliant and put it up there with one of the best psychological thrillers I've seen. Particularly the ending when I thought I had it all sussed and was comfortable with my own assessment of the film. Only marks down for some slightly unbelievable screaming during the couple scene.
cmovies-99674 PROS: This movie was such an amazing find. To start off, the way the characters interacted was unbelievably thought out and intricate. There wasn't a single actor that didn't do or say something without a purpose. The way everything was strung together, from character interaction to plot lines, was completely flawless. You were never bored and you were never directly given any answer. What I really like is when you are forced to think with the characters, not for them. It allows the watcher to become invested in the film. Not only was I invested for some of the film, but I was captivated by the whole film from beginning to end. There wasn't a single scene that dragged or didn't have a purpose. This includes the resolution which, if I might add, was the best ending to any movie I've seen in the past month. The last thing that I'll add was how spectacular the actors were. I loved the cast and the raw emotion that they showed. With such a large cast it's hard to find a good actor for each role, but IDENTITY did that.CONS: This con might not seem like a big deal, but it is very important to me. The trailer was very poorly put together. I pick which movies I watch based on trailers, and I almost didn't pick this one because of its poor editing and plot description. It's not important to everyone, but I review films from on screen to off screen, and the trailer is what sells, therefore I must review that too.www.chorror.com
