    A totally engaging, riveting, chilling, original and unpridictable edge of your seat thriller. A smart, stunning, well-crafted and brilliant piece of mystery film making. It keeps your pulse pounding and your heart-racing all the way to its mind-blowing finish. A puzzel box of su...( read more)spense in unbarreable doses. You'll wont belive what happens next. Pure ingenious with a great script and cast. John Cusack and Ray Liotta are at their best. A strong and exceptional cast with great performances. Thriller's dont get more explosively entertaining or truly spellbinding than this.

    Lots of twists, lots of turns...Its been a while since I've seen it so I don't remember much about it so I'm sure there was nothing standout bout it...but that said, I'd watch it again.

    Identity is far from perfect. At first glance it is a haven for Hollywood rejects and those at the end of their careers, but it also defies the typical ideals of Hollywood film making. This is not a horror, not a thriller, not a drama, not a crime or action film. Yet it has elements of all of these and creates a film that stands alone against the usual Hollywood fare.

    It revolves around a group of people trapped in a cheap roadside motel synonymous with "Psycho" and other clones that have since failed to make the grade. Their lives intertwine before they meet and one by one they come to be in the place that many of them would breathe their last. For the most part, the plot then becomes typical slasher flick cinema and it would be easy to be complacent and think that this is the sum of "Identity" and decide that you have seen enough.

    Then it takes a bizarre twist of fate and you are no longer sure just exactly what it is you are watching. All I can say is that in spite of the flaws, Identity evolves into one of the cleverest films of recent memory. Refreshing, intelligent stuff that would make it difficult to dislike and a must for anyone who likes to watch a film that is just a little different. Had this had a little more hype, a few clever marketing campaigns and it would go down as a cult classic for the early 21st century.

    A good cast, but this film only slightly kept me interested as it went along. I really thought it was Ray Liotta the whole time, killing people in this motel just like he has continually killed his career. Bang! Corrina, Corrina...John Cusack is dead. Bang! Operation Dumbo Drop.....( read more).McGinley's gone. Ray...what happened?

    I could not get into this movie, I found it rather stupid and the twist in it was just ridiculous. Decent acting and atmosphere, but not much else.

    The twist ending is, like what Ray Liotta said, something that we've never seen before. And he's right, that twist is do damn original and quite good. But unfortunately, because of that twist ending, the film now makes less sense (not counting the twist). I think it would've been...( read more) better if it had only 6-7 personalities, 11 was too much. And that's what made the film make less sense. So Malcolm was sitting down and acting like 11 people? *scratch heads*

    Identity is a secret. Identity is a mystery. Identity is a killer.

    What if every choice we ever make was already made for us? What if there really were no coincidences in life and our destinies were already predetermined?

    Ten strangers with secrets are brought together ...( read more)in a savage rainstorm: A limo driver (John Cusack), an ?80s TV star (Rebecca DeMornay), a cop (Ray Liotta) who is transporting a killer (Jake Busey), a call girl (Amanda Peet), a pair of newlyweds (Clea DuVall and William Lee Scott) and a family in crisis (John C. McGinley, Leila Kenzle, Bret Loehr), all take shelter at a desolate motel run by a nervous night manager (John Hawkes). Relief in finding shelter is quickly replaced with fear as the ten travelers begin to die, one by one. They soon realize that, if they are to survive, they?ll have to uncover the secret that has brought them all together.

    Identity reminded me of the film Clue without the comedy. A great cast of characters with different backgrounds who all connect in the end. The plot pulled me in right from the start then I was hooked, I found it very interesting and never a dull moment. I was asking myself til the very end, Who done it, whose the killer? After all the twists and turns, the killer is revealed and it was a huge shock. I never would've guessed.
