So …. I saw the horror chiller Identity<\/a> last night. It’s hard to talk about movies of this nature without disclosing the trick of the trick movie, so I’ll summarize cautiously as follows:<\/p>\n

Plenty of good acting, John Cusack is such an anguished hottie and Ray Liotta is such a yummy hottie (though for some reason, I get the feeling I wouldn’t want him to talk, not that it’d be needed :));<\/p>\n

I covered my eyes four times …. that’s a good thing;<\/p>\n

I figured out the ending three times ….. each time wrong …. that’s a good thing;<\/p>\n

I had two buckets of popcorn and two frozen Mountain Dews …. another good thing;<\/p>\n

I legitimately jumped in my seat twice …. another good thing; and,<\/p>\n

I didn’t look at my watch once, a rarity and a good thing.<\/p>\n

I did find the trick at the end a bit awkward, but it worked. It was no Sixth Sense, my benchmark of trick movies, but it was an entertaining view.<\/p>\n

It could be an adequate date movie (for the “out of fear” cuddle factor). However, other than that, there’s nothing about the movie that you couldn’t enjoy on a dvd when it’s released. So if you’re going to big screen it, do a matinee, unless you’re on a date. In that case, then go to the late show so that it’s definitely dark when you leave the theater (figure it out kids …. makes for a snuggly walk back to the car after seeing a scary flick.) Final score …. because I always round to whole numbers …. 6 out of 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
