Eeny-Meeny-Miny-Moe - One Personality Left To Go!

Rating: 5/10 (23 May 2015)

Identity has got to be one of screwiest flicks that I have seen to date. Identity deliberately misleads the audience (which I don't mind). Identity purposely confuses and tricks one into thinking they're actually watching 2 separate movies at the same time, but, in reality they're not.
It seems that these 2 flicks have been inexplicably spliced together. But the truth is it's just one tangled and intertwined story that, literally, takes reaching the end of the film before the logical side of things get ironed out. (Well, sort of)
Identity's story is so convoluted and incoherent, at times, that if we were all schizos ourselves to begin with, then we might be able to appreciate this flick to its fullest.
Identity's story revolves around 10 "so-called" strangers who, during a dark and violently stormy night, all end up congregating at some rundown, rinky-dink motel set out in No-Mans-Land in the middle of the Arizona Desert.
Just like the movie Ten Little Indians the characters all start to get bumped off, one by one. Who's behind these brutal murders, and why this is happening, is a movie plot-twist that, I suppose, is intended to end all movie plot-twists. You judge for yourself and then tell me that Hollywood doesn't overplay mental-disorder, and such, to the point of being downright ridiculous far too often.
The cast of Identity is headed by the talents of, none other than, Mr. Leave-It-To-Beaver, John Cusack, and Mr. Damage-Face, Ray Liotta.
