8/10
More than meets the eye...
Starring John Cusack and Amanda Peet, Identity is a thriller/mystery/horror revolving a group of strangers at Nevada Motel in the mist of a storm, and slowly one by one starts to get killed off.
Plot line sounds simple right? Well there's more to this film than meets the eye...a lot more. Like the tag line says "Secret lies within," so if you want to know what happens...watch it.
Identity, isn't as scary as you would presume. The moments of fear are set up so you know it is coming. Doesn't catch you completely off guard, but does give you chills as the right time.
The editing in the first 20 minutes or so, is quite brilliant. Going back and forth between shots sets up how each character is connected to the film.
Brilliant film, however, could have done more cuts of flashback during the latter half of the movie.
If you like thrillers/mystery with a touch of scary element attached, then I would recommend you take a tour through Identity.
