Identity [DVD]

This has a lot going for it - the inventive non-chronological sequences early on, a great cast, terrific edge-of-the-seat thrills, plenty of suspense and mystery, and lots and lots of heavy rain.Top marks for creating the right atmosphere!But it falls down in two places - it reveals the main plot twist too early. This revelation almost kills any remaining suspense and interest in further proceedings is almost lost. The whole basis of the movie hangs on this brilliant plot twist and it needed to come right at the end.However, even with this failing it's still worth a look if you want to see a fast paced intriguing thriller. A lot of people must have thought so too, as at the box office it made approx. 3 times its cost!Oh, and the other failing - how could anyone write out the stunning Rebecca De Mornay so early on in a movie! KAN

Entertaining yarn with some twists and turns, a group of assorted travellers find themselves holed up overnight in a run down Motel in the middle of nowhere and they are trapped there by a heavy storm and flooded roads, its a bit like the ten little indians story with people getting murdered one by one but who is the killer? Its actually very watchable, well acted and well put together with some genuine jump out your seat frights here and there, its not your usual cheap slasher movie, its quite a few steps above that because there are a few unexpected twists and turns going on and as the story progresses you realise that actually all is not what it appears, anyway, I wont give the game away here but I bought this movie because I admire the work of actor John Cusak, he never seems to make bad movies and here is no exception, this is very good and an entertaining movie to watch on a rainy evening.

We saw this late one night TV but the incessant advert breaks spoilt it, hence buying the DVD to enjoy it as it should be. Its well written and acted plus the story line keeps you guessing as you get more sense of it without the advert breaks, believe me...

arrive in good condition and before time

this is a good quality movie and well worth the money

It could've been so much better but it wasn't

I don't know what it is about this film but it's one that I never get tired of watching ( The big Lebowski is another one), great transfer to bluray and two wonderful commentaries on the U.S. version which is region free.

A modern attempt at Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None. It's done fairly well, with a twist that I really didn't expect. My only criticism is that they reveal what is really happening too soon, and so the tension of the film is relaxed to a certain extent. Good performances from John Cusack as always and Ray Liotta supports with a great success. A good mystery, very close to being great
