Identity (James Mangold, USA, 2003) August 11, 2006
Posted by Daniel Stephens in : Horror, 2000s, Drama, Film reviews, Action/Adventure, Thriller/Suspense, Crime , trackbackDir. James Mangold; screenplay by Micheal Cooney; starring John Cusack, Ray Liotta, Amanda Peet, Alfred Molina, Clea Duvall
One of the better thrillers to come out of Hollywood in the last few years, John Cusack plays an ex-cop who gets himself into a little trouble when a storm leaves him and ten others stranded at a remote Motel. The trouble is: someone is killing them one by one.
The problem with Identity is that it does lose something on repeat viewings because for its ending to work satisfactorily it relies on the surprise of the twist. When you know what’s coming, the ending can seem like a let down. Nevertheless, the photography is superb, and John Cusack and Ray Liotta are their usual dependable selves.
