Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
NoName1989 I watched this movie because the story seemed interesting and because the director was Paul W.S. Anderson. He is the director of Resident Evil. I'm very glad I watched this TV-movie, because the direction was excellent, especially the cinematography. But also the music by Jocelyn Pook was very good! The acting was pretty good too and the story (also written by Paul W.S. Anderson) was interesting. Only the end might be a bit confusing. But as I said, the cinematography is excellent and the special effects are very good (certainly for a TV-film). For example the post-apocalyptic scene in New-York was excellent! The music is perfect for this movie and brings it to an even higher level.
Snoopy1 "The Sight" turned out to be a delight! It was a suspense movie about a serial killer...with a supernatural twist. The protagonist helps find the killer by utilizing his "sight", given to him by a dying woman. He has the ability to communicate with the dead. What better way to find out who the killer is than to talk to his victims?This movie was entertaining throughout the entire duration (which was only 90 minutes). The acting was superb, the entire movie was fast-paced, and the plot played with my mind and kept me at the edge of my seat. The last fifteen minutes left me saying "holy sh!t" , while the clever comic relief left me giggling. One of the best surprise endings I've seen, aside from "The Sixth Sense" and "The Others". I am extremely picky about the types of movies I enjoy...and this one was great. Don't let the fact that it was made for TV scare you off...it's better than most Hollywood blockbusters.
misterdeak I watched this film by accident really, because I had never heard of it and am usually a little sceptical about tv films. As it turned out, I'm glad I gave it a chance. It has a good story, good actors and interesting cinematography (especially the lighting - blue is my favourite colour!). I didn't quite get the Alice in Wonderland references though... Unfortunately I missed the first fifteen minutes, which may explain why I didn't understand the rather cosmic last scene... I was hoping the sequel or maybe the series would tell me, but it so happens neither have ever been made. A shame really, because it's a very promising film. And surprisingly good for a "mere" tv production.
DP-7 Although billed as a 'TV movie' this screams out that it was a pilot for a tv series. There are some reasonable 'make you jump' moments and some creepiness, but this is a supernatural drama rather than a horror show or even tense thriller. Whilst the plot 'twists' in the main story were obviously signposted, the final references to a whole new layer of plot showed promise. Shame that it doesn't seem to have been picked up as a series for that to be delved in to - with luck, there will be at least a second 'movie' to wrap up that 'ghosts of the ghosts', matrix type of thing that they seemed to be heading for...
