What a disappointment!

Rating: 3/10 (14 August 2003)

I saw "Identity" yesterday as the opening movie of a festival. Perhaps the situation raised my expectations... For almost the whole movie the audience gets misleaded! It would have been nice to see any explanation or even motivation for what happened: but there is none! A good cast and crew got wasted in a miserable script!
(Spoiler included) If you set up a story in an insane mind which is even insane enough to deny any motivation you can do anything without the need to explain! I wonder why people didn't even fly in that movie??? Couldn't have been more illogical or implausible... No explanation for the numbered keys, no explanation for the disappearance of the dead bodies... Well... I accept the lack of explanation, unless there is still some kind of motivation.... At least it would have been nice if the motivation would have been to escape the death sentence... well... not even that...
