Too much... unfortunately. "POSSIBLE SPOILER!"

Rating: Null/10 (3 September 2003)

Identity could have been a great film if only the film makers had kept the film more focused and to the point. The film looks great, there is some nice acting (even from Peet!), and there is a complexity to the story line which makes it more interesting than your average movie.
Unfortunately, it's too complicated. It's part standard thriller, who-dunnit mystery, slasher film, supernatural, and with (sort of) a twist ending. With a running time of just over 1Â½ hours there's no way that all this can work. Most of the characters are very one dimensional and there is no point in trying to look for clues and guess who the killer is, since the ending pretty much negates most of what seemingly was important to the plot and it all boils down to nothing.
Identity is still worth a look, but in my opinion it's just an interesting failure.
