I admit that this is another decent film made on a totally radical concept, but decency just isn't enough to entertain me; at least not thoroughly. But I do appreciate it; and I do think that some will enjoy it. The film's one good aspect is making damn fine use of visual technology such as CGI. The filmmakers never create anything that's as scary as they probably want it to be, but nothing ever looks genuinely revolting. And that's good, seeing how many horror films that are out there just don't give a damn or half a damn about the visual experience that is film.
So if you like horror, then save this one for a rainy day. I'm passionate about the genre to say the least, and this just isn't scary or entertaining enough for me to call it good. But it is well-made; you just shouldn't be rushing out to get it and hopefully watch it. But if you do, then it's a mediocre watch; as long as you can get by some truly tedious stuff.
It's not quite the movie that it makes itself out to be. It truly is a disappointment, but luckily, only a minor one. A Chinese woman gets an eye cornea transplant. She enjoys her knew gift of eye-sight for quite some time, but then she starts to have visions.
These visions are those which intend to foreshadow tragedies and deaths. The woman expresses this concept to her psychologist, who fails to take the thing seriously at first; but becomes affectionate of his patient and decides to help her by all means necessary.
If you were wondering, the character is named Mun; and her psychologist is Dr. I've essentially given away a good portion of the plot already and without spoiling too much! If you feel that "The Eye" is worth your time, then maybe you should just watch the thing. That's far from a recommendation, but I'm just trying to state that this movie isn't all bad. It's just half bad; and it's hard to look at the better half over the worse half for a lot of the time.
That's the problem with this movie. But it's not the only one. I also had a problem with the film's characters. None of them had true personalities; they were just people thrown into a situation. I believe that a good horror film can make up for its lack of truly interesting characters with atmosphere, but "The Eye" doesn't even have enough of that to suffice.
It's undeniably entertaining, but never as so as it may want to be. After all; visuals that are at least "good" can only entertain me for so long. Here, they run their course until they just simmer down into forgetfulness, much like the rest of this mediocrity-fest.
But if you like the film, then do not be ashamed. Somewhere, there is a good horror movie hidden underneath "The Eye" and its troubled exterior.
But the interior is as hollow as an aging tree, and the result is as tedious as it is mildly boring. This movie is too talky and since none of the dialogue is interesting, you should know that this gets horridly bland to be genuinely scary, and all the talk never leads up to anything exciting.
There's no pay-off. I have just pointed out yet another problem with "The Eye". I bet that I can point on twice as more before this review is over. Some films can be just OK, but well-acted.
And some films can be just OK, with just OK acting. This is one of those movies; a competently acted film that has a semi-talented cast. Nothing is wasted, but nothing is shown. The actors never play involving characters, so that takes the fun-o-meter down a notch for sure. But the acting isn't bad; not in the slightest. Mun is played by Angelica Lee; who is as I said, a competent actor. She's in a decent role, but sometimes she's just plain corny. And something tells me that corniness was not the aim with this film.
The problem with a lot of horror movies is that they put style over substance. There were once days when directors such as Dario Argento could make solid films out of their visual skills, but nowadays things have gone way too over the top for my taste. On the bright side, "The Eye" isn't a gory horror movie.
It makes good use out of convincing and often times creepy special effects. It also has good cinematography, so essentially the thing is best when it's exploiting its little visual gifts. There is such thing as a film which wants to be visually mind-blowing and only that. I can appreciate those films; and even love them. But "The Eye" wants be scary, and while it has some jumps, nothing should be mistaken for "scares".
If you want scares, then see a different film. A young and old priest are charged to investigate, where they first come to believe, then spend the rest of the movie fighting back the devil for control of the young girl's soul. This is one of the best horror films to depict the consequences of true faith. Psycho - Released in Brought to life by Alfred Hitchcock, Psycho is the true epitome of suspense and tension.
