The Eye 3 - Infinity

well i just end up seeing this 3 part of the eye franchise.i start liking this pang brothers and i get some of theme earlier movies,the eye was really surprising me for the power of scaring you and after giving you chill-out feeling.but the eye 10 make me disappointed but be cause of the willing to get scared.it was making sense until it start turning to looks like scary movie ,so if you like parodies this is your movie and if you wanna scare your self try french HIGH TENSION.i hope so they will go back to were they start , with the next movie.but don't call it the eye don't know witch number.give it other name so don't make the first eye be refused by those who never seen it.i give 3 of 10 for the break dance and for the good looking girls.make me remind me of the 80'is.

We expected a horror movie, but it is more like a horror-comedy. The actors are good, special effects also good. The Eye 10 has nothing to do with The Eye 1 and 2, other than the same directors/film-makers.

Some teenagers are trying 8 methods of contacting/seeing ghosts. A few of those ways are really funny, its a long time since we have laughed as much as we did seeing this movie.

I recommend this movie as a horror/comedy, not if you are looking for a scary horror flick. Guess that those who gave this movie low scores was expecting something else. There is not much blood and gore in this movie.

Liked the ending too.

In Thailand, Chongkwai is welcoming his friends Ted and his cousin May and Kofei and his girlfriend April from Hong Kong. While in a tourist tour, they see an accident on the road, and when they return to Chongkwai's home, they decide to tell ghost stories. Chongkwai shows them a mystic book with ten ways to see spirits and they decide to follow the procedures. When Kofei vanishes, April tries to fin him, while Ted and May runs back to Hong Kong. But the spirits do not leave them and insist to play with them. Ted and May return to Thailand trying to stop seeing ghosts.

"Gin Gwai 10" is a reasonable ghost story, with many funny moments and great special effects. However, this theme is losing the impact: the original "Gin Gwai" is a very scary movie; the sequel "Gin Gwai 2" is also scary, but with a deceptive conclusion. This last sequel is weaker, but is a good entertainment. I laughed a lot with the sequence of Ted in April's building: absolutely hilarious and probable the best moment of this film. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Visões 2: A Vingança dos Fantasmas" ("Visions 2: The Revenge of the Ghosts")

Well, it has been a slow, but steady downward slope for "The Eye" (aka "Gin gwai") franchise, ever since after the original 2002 movie. And this third movie in the franchise titled "The Eye 10" (aka "Gin gwai 10"), but oddly released as "The Eye 3: Infinity", was just the crowning achievement of the franchise, and this is where the franchise died for me.

This third movie in the franchise, as written by Danny Pang, Oxide Chun Pang and Mark Wu turns away from being straight forward horror to adding comedy elements to it as well, thus becoming a horror comedy of sorts. But not the good kind of horror comedy, mind you.

Sitting through "The Eye 10" is a difficult ordeal, especially since this is essentially an anthology of showcasing various Asian superstitions and rituals. So there was very little of a proper storyline to be enjoyed here.

While I initially watched "The Eye 10" back in 2005 when it was released, I had to sit down again in 2021 to watch it again, as I had entirely forgotten about this movie's story. I remember having seen it, but the contents were gone from memory. And sitting down to watch this anthology was not a blast, believe you me. It was boring, tedious and downright pointless unless you are Asian and have an insight into the superstitious world of Asia and folklore.

"The Eye 10" was a massive swing and a miss, and it doesn't even measure up to any of the predecessing two movies by a long shot. Nay, "The Eye 10" is like the cousin that the other two don't ever talk about or mention.

The acting performances in "The Eye 10" were adequate. Sure, I will give the movie that much. However, you are not being treated to any familiar or famous actors or actresses here, so you are not in for 1 hour and 26 minutes of particularly great company.

Do yourself a favor and stay clear of "The Eye 10", especially if you enjoyed either or both of the previous two movies in original Asian "The Eye" franchise.

This is definitely not a movie that I will be returning to watch again. There simply was no point in wasting 1 hour and 26 minutes on this.

My rating of "The Eye 10" lands on a generous three out of ten stars, based mostly on the production value here.

It's clear that "The Eye" franchise has run out of steam, ideas, scares, visuals, you name it. It's over.

The film actually begins at a rather swift and surprising pace (with likable people), and it manages to maintain interest for about 25 minutes before slowly deflating in front of your very Eye. It's a ghost-chasing-teen-romp, unlike the first in the series, which was drenched in pathos, hospital sterility, and Mann's physical disability. In fact, this latest movie references the first Eye quite frequently, especially the haunted elevator scene and the bit with the young boy-ghost trying to find his report card in the apartment stairwell. But this film recreates these once-fraught scenes in a self-conscious giggling way. Unfortunately the effect was to make me want to watch the original outing one more time because it really is such a fine, grave, and startling film.

Alas, this third in the series is none of the above.

Oh, and it's not funny either.

I suppose the Pangs wanted to get away from the dread-filled atmosphere of the first two features, and so they rely on some ham-fisted joking and some outright slapstick between the scares. The real low moment came when the unavoidable fart joke appeared--farting as a means to ward off evil spirits. Hmmmm. I knew at that very moment the franchise had squeaked out its last gassssssp. Goodbye Eye.
