The Lost

Well, I checked this out due to the high rating (hmm, wonder where that came from). However, it's a standard shocker flick (not "horror", not a "thriller", ... I guess the intention was shock). I ended up fast-forwarding through the majority of it as it was fairly unwatchable. The main character is a really unlikable (except to himself) dude. The effects and music are laughably - seriously, I laughed out loud - cheesy. The generic choice for a title was a good move, however, if only in that it might bring in a "lost" audience ("hey, this could be a drama, or thriller, or even a horror...sounds good!). I'm sure you're (cast & crew) nice people and all, but isn't it really just a waste of everyone's time to produce sub-standard stuff such as this? I don't blame you for trying, but I hate having my time wasted.

Since it is not a movie for the theaters but straight to TV, so not a big budget film, i think they did a decent job. It was entertaining and the plot twists may not be mind blowing it still did it for me. I wouldn't shout of the rooftops to go and see it but I might tell people to check it.I read a review from someone complaining about the special effects. I don't get his point, there are not many real special effects in it and since it is not a big budget movie I'd say they were good enough.All and all a decent movie, good enough acting mostly and maybe a few things could have been done better but hey, give me one title of a blockbusting movie that doesn't have that.Also I would like to point out that it's hard to make a movie with this kind of story that makes sense to everybody.Maybe it would have been more satisfying for the big audience with more gore and action and dazzling effects but imho it didn't need that.Maybe some more character building could have been nice... Just check it out some day ;)

I found myself very caught up in this movie, at least at the beginning, and any credit I give to this movie, is Lacey Chabert, she was fantastic!! But thats where it ends. I seem to be very good at figuring out who the killer is, and I like it when a movie is able to completely baffel me, but I felt out and out lied to, they whole time they lead you in one direction and then suddenly they decided to go in a completely different direction at the end, they gave no hit to it at all, thats not misleading that very bad writing and planning, someone did not think at all!

I felt the movie would have been much better if they had stuck to the plot that the lead you on, they also seemed to not answer anything, why did Jane(maria) burn down the professor's house.

Its a great pity as I felt it started out as a relatively good movie.

An aging psychiatrist, Dr. Kevin Khoury, now writing about the illness of multiple personality disorders is approached by a woman at a book signing, eventuality forcing him to go into one of his older cases, when he gave diagnostics to a young girl's case the woman's sister. This is the start of a film which has a great deal of talent, and which could have been quite a film if the script writing had held all the story though.

With quite a meager budget the film maker has made a film which manages to keep your interest all the way until the end, which might not follow up your expectations. The acting is excellent. Armane Assante is great as the psychiatrist, but the one stealing the show is Lacey Chabert, which plays the sister. She is absolutely amazing in her role as the MPD-ridden girl.

If you like a good mystery, this is time well spent, with a great idea in the midst of a film which allowed your mind to work hard. Still I could see this material being made into a very good film with a little better script writing. The rest if the film is very talented all the way through.

I found this to be a fairly good movie.

The acting was good, I doubted Lacey Chabert could pull off multiple personalities but she was much better than I expected. Dina Meyer is pretty as ever and Assante was good, though far less animated than I'm used to. He was playing a psychiatrist turned writer so I guess it fit.

The story was gripping and kept you interested, though at times wondering why the characters couldn't figure out what you had. (Don't be too smug ;) The end was abrupt and I think they could have done a better job, but overall I would say that this movie would be well received by most.
