AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
dbborroughs Creepy and very strange film about a woman who sees ghosts, possessions, and headless corpses.(Look fast for Anthony Wong as a decapitated man at the start).I don't completely understand what was going on, which I know is one of the reasons the film is slightly disturbing. Its an odd mix of horror and comedy that has too many threads flying about, many of which are are left hanging or explained poorly. The films look goes a great way in creating a mood and one feels off just by looking at the film.Probably the only one of the recent spate of Chines Horror films I've been watching lately films I may watch again.
NIXFLIX-DOT-COM The first thing you will notice about VISIBLE SECRET is its strange sensibilities. Even the film's rhythm is slightly "off", making it very different from the current rash of Hong Kong "I See Ghost" movies of late. Although the premise is overly familiar by now (Shu Qi plays a woman who can see ghosts -- but only with her left eye!), the movie works as an effective human drama (especially the lead's relationship with his brother and father) and as a quirky comedy (the movie is oftentimes very funny). As a ghost story, it falters badly, and there's a twist at the end that, if you weren't asleep during the previous 90 minutes, you can see coming about 50 miles away.One other thing: VISIBLE SECRET has almost no scares in it. There are some attempts at mood and atmosphere, but for the most part the laughs and over-the-top hilarity overcomes the thrills and chills, which comes across as more mundane requisite than anything the filmmakers were interested in putting into their movie.7 out of 10(go to www.nixflix.com for a more detailed review of the film, and reviews of other movies in this genre)
ETCmodel02 SPOILERS!!! SPOILERS!!! SPOILERS!!! SPOILERS!!! SPOILERS!!!Hsu Chi and Sam Lee are fun to watch, and for the most part this film is fun and clever. The attempt at the end to pull a Sixth Sense turnabout fails horribly, too many plot contradictions, seems like an afterthought invoked late in the production. At least this film has a playful sense of style, and doesn't over saturate every scene in shades of lime green. The possessed characters are wonderfully over the top.
Lestat65 ... that keeps reinventing itself. You've never quite seen a film like this. It takes a while to get into the story, but the payoff is well worth it. The less said about the plot the better. It's a vibrant, spooky comic book come to life with a wonderful offbeat sensibility. Visible Secret has all the best elements of The X-Files, Sixth Sense, Jacob's Ladder and Scooby Doo. I'm definitely ready to explore more of Ann Hui's earlier work. Highly recommended.
