The Eyes

The Eyes is a very good suspense thriller film shot at one location only (almost)yet enticed its viewers by emotionally captivating them with the backstories of the characters and of course, with its deceitful plot.

Aside from the good plot, it also has a good music and cinematography.

If you have a penchant for mind-blowing movies, this movie is definitely for you. Go check it out at Redbox.

Well, rarely do I write reviews for a film which could be acted out on stage, but despite its terrible reviews, I have to give this a 6/10 for the plot twist alone. I didn't it see coming.

6 strangers are tied up and bound in a cellar. They all have no idea how they got there. They are told that only 1 will leave alive and it's up to them to decide on which one. As the story unfolds, we find a government agency is behind it and there is a secret reason they are all there. But is the reason given true, or is there something else going on? They all confess to being sinners, but despite the flashbacks we are shown, can anyone's confession be trusted?

"The Eyes" may not be a well acted film but to be honest, there is a reason for that too, as you will understand at the end of the movie. It makes me laugh at the reviews for those who trash the acting. I guess they miss the whole point of the film, or just weren't paying attention.

One can argue that this is hardly a film by normal standards. It's a play that happens to be acted out ON film, and as for its wooden direction or shoe string budget, who cares? I wasn't expecting Doctor Zhivago.

For those who expect "Saw" because of the setup, it isn't. There is little violence if any in this film. What we really have here is an elaborate game being played out- a cat and mouse tale, whose sole purpose is to set up a very unique and clever twist. As time goes by, "being original" is becoming harder and harder. They at least tried something clever. It does keep you guessing, and the ending makes it worthwhile- for those who are willing to hang in there.

The dialogue was good (screenplay), and the acting was fairly convincing, but the endgame was very obvious. I watched this because I love psychological thrillers like this, however after 20 minutes in, I knew what was going on. The story overall was good, but the direction it took was made for simpletons. If you can't figure it out, you need to exercise your brain more often.

This is one of my favorite twist movies of all time. The lead actress isn't great but not necessarily because she's not good but because that's the script. Wink, wink.

I love movies where you don't know the actors, it makes it more real. I love twist endings and am so tired of the same old stuff where you have to google to figure the explanation. Over it. Also, hate sci-fi.

I saw this years ago and have been searching for it ever since.

Absolutely impeccable.

For the haters looking for plot holes, when it comes to Sixth Sense, who hired him? Talk about a huge overlook. It's always easy to poke holes in an otherwise brilliant movie.

Love love love this movie!!!!!

Dialogue, delivery, plot setting and were TERRIBLE! Disembodied voice was flat, yet rushed. Just awful reading of horrible lines. "Pretty porn star" girl reacted like a two year old having a tantrum rather than a traumatized, terrified person. Cursing teen just cursed for zero reason. All the characters were unlikable and the acting was so, so bad. Randos awaken tied to chairs, badly acted confusion and anger ensues. "let's get to know each other!" Weak backstories disclosed, (also limply acted,as is par for this movie). My fave plot holes were the multi angle "surreptitious" drone murder shot,the lawyer with no legal airs whatsoever,everyone KNOWING they are being accused of all being murderers and no one saying anything until forced. Could have been a decent movie if written and acted better.
