Shaun R @Shaun666 Jun 20 Plenty of potential, but never quite hits the heights that it should. Some decent moments. Alba probably thought this would make her the next scream Queen… it didn’t happen. See more Daniel C Mar 1 America really needs to stop remaking great foreign movies cause they can't ever match the greatness of any of the orginals. I give this movie a 1.5 cause the acting was good and a great job by Jessica Alba but just the story has been watered down and the practical effects are not that good. Stick to watching the Japanese version it's very good. This one not so much. See more Ralph R Feb 8 The Eye had the potential to be a gripping psychological horror, but it fell short in depth and originality. The plot follows a familiar formula without bringing much new to the table, making it predictable despite some intriguing moments. The directing is solid, with well-timed transitions and a smooth shift into the second act. Cinematography stands out in certain scenes, especially with the contrast between reality and visions, and small production details show attention to realism. However, while the visuals are effective, they don't fully compensate for the film’s lack of emotional weight. Jessica Alba’s performance is serviceable but lacks the intensity needed to carry a psychological horror film. She maintains the same on-screen presence she’s known for, but it doesn’t elevate the script, which already struggles with depth. The supporting cast does a decent job, though no one truly stands out. The script itself feels basic, relying on surface-level tension rather than digging into the psychological aspects of the story. The sound design helps build atmosphere, but it doesn’t leave a lasting impact. Overall, The Eye is watchable with good production value and some eerie moments, but it doesn’t push boundaries or leave a strong impression.

I feel people put "remakes" down just because they are remakes. See more MasaHiro X 07/31/2023 Uuugghhhhh… this film, what to even say??? other than despite it being a remake it's horrible, writing and cgi are just there, Jessica Alba acts as the most bland, most trope riddled character, the doctor character is a cardboard cut out, far from what the original character was in the 2002 Hong Kong Singaporean original…. this film suffers from being a remake, if you're wondering why hollywood has troubles today, it's because of poor financial decisions like this… There's nothing really scary and horror about this film, no love, no care and made solely for profit… one good or interesting thing is that it just exists on some store shelves…. See more Jelisije J 03/05/2023 A decent horror flick that doesn't insult my intelligence, but I'm not the biggest fan of horror movies and this movie is a predictable snore fest.
