It was par for the course as far as mystery/thrillers go. A lot of people really enjoyed it, but that's probably because they hadn't seen too many twist endings before. It's worth a rent.

It was alright.. something happens in the movie that totally kicked me out of the movie... I wasn't sucked in anymore.

Mehoni

It's good a long while. Towards the end, at a certain point the movie becomes less "fascinating" and I became bored. I didn't really like the ending,

I thought it was pretty good. Made me think. Good thriller. And John Cusak is great in this.

i was a wee bit disappointed.
i found the main part of the film quite boring... but i enjoyed the build-up and introduction of the characters... and the ending was fun.

Good lord that movie was awful!

I have no idea what people see in this movie. It was absolutely terrible. Perhaps people could explain to me what exactly it was that they found so great about it?

If you want a movie where this type of concept is executed well, do yourself a favour and rent Mullholland Drive. Now THERE'S a good movie!

I really enjoyed most of this movie. Hmmm, how to say without spoilers though....I guess I'd of been happier if it was more of a 'classic' mystery/thriller, with maybe a tad of the supernatural thrown in, as opposed to the route they took.

I saw someone purchasing it at Best Buy today. I really liked the movie, but would never buy it...it's one of those movies that are very enjoyable the first time, but with very limited re-watchability.

The movie was vaguely disappointing. I think it couldn't hold the pace it set for itself. The (very) ending was nice, if predictable, given the twist just before.

Wasnt too bad. But nothing to really write home about. The twist as they say is ok but not mind blowing as some say. It is like the makers werent sure how to resolve the movie as it was ok up until half an hour to go.

I just saw it a couple hours ago. Generally, if it has John Cusack, I like it, but I didn't like Identity. Too many twists.

is it just me or did the little kid look like that buddy lee doll in those jean commercials?

It was okay, but I expected ALOT more out of it with that cast. It's frustrating when a movie shows great promise, but just fails to deliver.

I predicted what was going to happen within 20 minutes. If you've seen a lot of movies like this, its sorta easy to tell. But if you arent thinking about it, I guess it could take you by suprise. It wasn't that bad of a flick. I wish I would have waited until it came out at blockbuster though.

utang

It wasn't bad. I think John Cusack is a really good actor and Ray Liotta plays a really good "angry crazy" guy. But it tried to pull a mind-twist of Fight Club or Usual Suspects proportions, but it really doesn't pull it off too well. Good enough to watch once I guess.

It's not bad by any stretch of the imagination, but it is a trifle predictable. The genre itself has also been done to death. All in all worth watching once.

bundy

don´t fret good sir.
as i said above. this film disappointed me.
it was yet another example of over-hype.
the more i think about this film, the worse it becomes.

i saw it, it was ok, but the book it's based off was waaay better (par for the course, i suppose). but one thing did kinda creep me out. the birthday thing. they all had MY birthday.

I liked it for the most part, the ending wasn't the best but other than that it wasn't too bad.

It was good, not great but it was better than the average movie. I thought the ending was pretty good.

Daval

I also enjoyed the movie.

The last scene was a tad much, but the rest of it and the twists were pretty good.

I liked it, the cast was good, and they all turned in nice performances. The birthday is my wife's bithday which creeped her out too. Worth a rent, definitely, but I wouldn't buy it for full price.

For the most part I enjoyed it. Could have chopped off the last 10 minutes or so though. It would have been better if they ended it without the final twist.

i thought it was pretty cool, classical whodunnit with a twist. sort of like a psycho setting. the twist was a doozy too. I just watched Adapation and the twin brother's script sounded a lot like Identity.

StormBerlin

Someone said it was based on a book, What book is that? The movie was pretty good, so I would be interested in reading the book.
