Identity - Great or Not

So, after watching the CTP release of the film, I have to say that Identity bloody rocked. I think there's only about 3 films that match up to that film so far, the first being, Two Towers, Phone Booth and Dreamcatcher.

I think the twist within the film was amazing. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the whole film.

Yes it was great..next time check around and see if a thread exsists. There is a review of Identity under review and you could've added your comments there.

And you thought Dreamcatcher was equal to Identity and TTT?
I thought Dreamcatcher was one of the most disappointing movie so far this year. But then again very few Stephen King books are done well on the big screen

You are a retard..you know that? Not only did you sum up the movie for each and every person to read but you ALSO missed the concept of the movie COMPLETELY...how old are you? did you shut the movie off after the first 74 minutes and miss the last 13?
GOD people like you annoy me and are a danger to yourself and others..you sir are part of the downfall of our great society..next time leave big boy movies to big boys and go see The Real Cancun...I done with this clown

First I apologize for not placing spoilers at the beginning of my statements....second it only shows that you attacked me for my comments instead of telling me what was good about the movie....the last thirteen minutes were not mentioned because the first 80 minutes were not worth anything....that's why the last 13 minutes were thrown at you to explain all the bullcrap that didn't make sense and the person responsible for killings was not an option for me. They could have also made up another character and said "oh he's the killer" cause the killerhas no reason whatsoever to be the killer......quick ending for a quirky movie that could not tie it all in and finally decided to flip a quarter and assign the killings to someone on the sideline.

Again 2 out of 5 stars

And thank you for your personal comments petrocs...it really shows your maturity and being able to handle a negative review on a movie that you liked..

freestlz... you seem to only be disapointed because you started watching the movie expecting a teeny bopper shasher.. and ended up with a psychological thriller

You seem to be forgetting that this whole movie was a figment of this dude's imagination. So anything goes.

This movie was brilliant in my opinion.

No..I can handle a negative review from someone who actually GOT the movie..you obviously have no sense of imagination NOR any understanding of what a psychological thriller is which to me is very sad. Negative reviews wouldnt bother me cause I didnt make the movie..ignorance however does.

Well, I found the movie to be very original. Without giving away the ending. Did you guys have any idea the last 13 minutes would be like it was? I thought all of those guys sitting at the table were talking about the tall blonde guy killer. But as the movie went along. I came to the conclusion that couldn't be the case.

SPOILERS

Yes yes, Identity is littered with plot holes and unanswered questions
-the kid blowing up the car, killing the much larger young husband, and almost getting that bathroom door open
-the apparent extra cell phone battery for the actress' phone
-Ray Liotta (being a transferred prisoner) somehow getting a knife into the cop car, and miraculously getting out of the locked backseat after stabbing the cop

...but given the fact that the whole movie outside of the court room was inside the killer's head, then you can disregard everything. That said, the movie was excellent, very creepy and pretty violent. Liotta and John Cusack were awesome, and the rest of the cast did a great job too.
A lot of people complain about the kid being the killer, but it didnt bother me.

I recommend this movie to anyone, except for those assholes who always think they can solve the whodunit 5 minutes into the movie, and claim they knew all along after the credits roll. Those people should be shot.

Oh yeah and Dreamcatcher was one of the worst movies in recent years. Awesome book, good first 40 minutes of the movie, who knew it could turn out so shitty.

come on dude, how wouldve that made you enjoy the movie any more? thats just plain stupid.

this was the first movie ive seen with this type of ending and thought it was a cool original idea.

i also like the way they introduced the characters into the film with all the connections, it really made you feel how they really do belong together.

*SPOILER*
Your an idiot, it was in the killer's head, so it doesn't have to make sense! All the characters where his ten personalities, and the only way to save himself was to kill all but one off. His doctor had hoped that the real killer, which we now know is the kid, would be one of the personalities to die, but as the end showed, its the only one left!

Man, from your reply, and one or two others on this post, I can tell your one of those people that has to have the damn movie explained to them by the same person you just watched it with!
*END SPOILER*

Great movie overall, I loved it, my wife didn't think it was as good as everyone said it was.
