A dreary, cliched movie with an appalling ending

Rating: 2/10 (28 January 2004)

I'm stunned to see Identity rated so highly on IMDB. For me, the movie started off simply being unpleasant - fairly exciting though, to give it credit - but not one of the characters had any charm to draw me in. The unpleasantness continued for a while in typical Hollywood style...and then came the twist. Most twists in movies are designed to make the story more interesting, or give the audience a new perspective: this one just eradicated any empathy anyone may have had with the characters. The real let-down was that this wasn't the end of the movie, so we had to suffer a further 30 minutes or so of what had now become laughable drivel. Come on guys, you can do better than this...
