Summary: Not as bad
Review: I heard this movie would be bad, but I was forced to watch and loved it. This movie reminds me of an Alfred Hitchcock movie about obsession, loneliness, and love. People just want to know the movie once and know about it once. I believe you must see it more then once. That's what I also love. This is not a simple-minded movie. This is one with sophistication. Please whoever reads this don't listen to the other people this is a film worth a look.

Summary: Too Thin..
Review: What a shame! It COULD HAVE BEEN a great film..You trust it gets better but after the first 45 min. you give up hope, at least I did. I think the actors are doing their best. However, the story is too thin, especialy the ending is disappointing.

Summary: Good lead performances, good premise, LOUSY movie.
Review: Ashley Judd and Ewan MacGregor are two of my favorite actors, especially since seeing Mr. MacGregor in "Moulin Rouge". So we had to see this movie. But it was such a let-down. The plot never unfolded, it never went anywhere, there was no dramatic conclusion, no conclusion at all in fact, no satisfying ending. One of the worse endings of any movie I've ever seen. We all looked at each other and said, "That's it?!?!" It felt like a 3-hour movie.

Summary: What?
Review: I wanted to like this movie. I enjoy Ashley Judd in her other roles, and well, Ewan McGregor, they don't get much better, but...What was this? The problem starts immediatly when they don't tell us anything about the charachters, but we are supposed to feel something? You just don't care, because you know nothing about them. For 1 hour and 40 minutes, I kept saying "It's got to get better". Never did. Sill love Ewan, but pick your roles more carefully!

Summary: Another View Point
Review: The Eye (Ewan McGregor) is a techno security nebbish for the British government assigned to watch after the wayward son of a high government official. What he observes is the murder of the son by a beautiful woman for whom his shock quickly descends into an erratic obsessive love beyond the call of duty. The murderess, Johanna Eris (Ashley Judd) kills every man who yearns to get close having been deserted as a child by her father. Problematic to the story is the audience's realization that years before The Eye crossed the threshold from reality to fantasy loosing his daughter with whom he continues to converse, a ghostly reminder of his lonely existance. Director Stephen Elliot (Pricilla, Queen of the Desert) earnestly tries to pull off this muddled murder-thriller. Elliot wants to overwhelm his audience with the idea of love out of control and the haunted emotions of longing and loneliness, but he is unable to rise beyond the problematic script. Judd is distant, an iceberg far from sexy, her acting is anything but compelling in the role of an older woman. Ewan McGregor, cast against type succeeds in bringing sympathetic pathos to his hunt with desperation and the need to find the daughter he's lost. The surprising small cameos of Jason Priestley as a evil drug-head, and Genevieve Boujould are high points in the film. Nevertheless, the film is long on concept and short on follow through. Critics and audiences hated this film, but it is not altogether bad nor an incomprehensible film. The DVD version includes commentary by director Elliot, deleted scenes, and an alternative ending that should have been left in the film. It's a good rental film and worth a look if you enjoy films that are off-center.

Summary: I wasted $$$ on this stupid movie?
Review: This has got to be the worst movie I have ever seen.Why the studio thought this would be a hit is beyond me.I don't understand why Ashley Judd and Ewan McGregor even gave a thought in to making this movie.I kept hearing that this movie was very bad,but I didn't think it would be as bad as they kept saying. Avoid this movie at all costs.It is simply horrid.

Summary: The greatest film of all time....
Review: This is my favorite movie of all time. Its unquie, captive, and inspiring. It captures life in a different aspect that has been missing from the movies all along. This film is beautifully directed. The story line isn't really anything, but how they make it out in this film makes it one of the best films ever. It shows two lost souls seeking one another for perfect harmony. A lost detective who lost his daughter and wife. And there is the killer.. a lost soul who grew up on the streets with a terrifying but beautiful quality to her. I won't say the ending but this has to be one film that I didn't like the ending.
