A thriller with not enough Identity to be consider a work of art

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2003)

IDENTITY is a thriller about a limo driver who ends up in a mind-boggling game. The story centers on Ed, while driving an actress he gets involved in a horrible accident that leaves one person extremely hurt. Rushing the victim to the only hotel around, Ed tries to get some help. But because of the rainstorm no one can go anywhere. As more stranded people arrive at the hotel, each one begins to be killed off in a sequence that seems fit for any of the SCREAM movies. Not too long into the movie each person's Identity gets shoved to the surface, and concludes with a pretty good ending.
Although this movie is good, there is nothing that makes it great, With the expectation of John Cusack, as Ed, and Ray Liotta, the other actors are turn in ordinary performances. But with Cusack and Liotta, who are two of the finest actors out there in Hollywood today, they bring some Identity to this picture. Rebecca De Mornay appears for a split second as the actress. She is also a very talented actress, her time and talent could have been used a little better.The ending to the film was pretty surprising, but like a movie that was released in 1999 starring Edward Norton, this ending brought back memories of that film. If you have seen both of these films then you will understand, but if not then you will have no idea what I am talking about. This film was pretty average, so I would have to give it a C. If you want stars then I'd say 2 and a half out of 4.
