Member Rating:  
Sydney Wells (Jessica Alba) has been given the gift of sight, but it comes with a horrifying price in the English-language remake of Danny and Oxide Pang's The Eye. The double corneal transplant was to open up a new world for Sydney, a concert violinist whose blindness has plagued her since childhood. With the help of Dr. Paul Faulkner (Alessandro Nivola) and sister Helen (Parker Posey), Sydney's operation and recovery seemed to be on the road to success -- until horrific images start to tear their way into her newfound vision. What's worse is that these episodes appear to foreshadow future deadly events, leading Sydney on a mission to track down the person whose eyes she has inherited and discover what kind of mystery from beyond the grave lies before her. The film is directed by David Moreau and Xavier Palud, the duo behind the acclaimed 2006 French terror flick Them, and is produced by Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner under their Cruise/Wagner production banner. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

    NO DOUBT, SCOTT F. IS A ZERO BUT I'D LIKE TO USE MY SPACE HERE TO TAKE A POLL...IF YOU BELIEVE BLOCKBUSTER WAS ASLEEP AT THE SWITCH AND SHOULDN'T HAVE PRINTED HIS OBVIOUS LOSER REMARKS, CLICK ON YES. HOPEFULLY, IT WILL SEND A MESSAGE SO OTHER MOVIES AREN'T RUINED BY HALF WITS LIKE LITTLE SCOTTY!

    Nice suspense. A little slow in the beginning, but the movie puts in a good surprise ending you think is going to be predictable.
