anthonytomb88 03/28/2024 Good film with great acting. The film has an intresting plot line... See more 11/27/2015 A brother and sister begin a torrid, obsessive affair. The affair that is the central conflict on this film is interesting only in the sense that I spent most of the film wondering what drew these two siblings to each other in the first place. Their behavior before they begin fucking is quite unremarkable, a supportive brother, an adoring sister, with a mild sexual chemistry that inflames briefly and smolders. The mysterious nature of their sexuality is interesting and perhaps the center of what the film is saying about sex and love. The rest of the film's plotlines are haphazard and repetitive and rather trite ways the siblings hide their activities and resist their own desire. Most of the film is nothing you haven't seen before. Overall, Close My Eyes begins with a good idea but fizzles to cliche. See more 02/02/2015 The controversy (incest) is more memorable than the film itself but worth a watch. See more 07/16/2014 This movie is above what people think it is. See more 04/13/2014 I thought this was an outstanding film. Terrific performances by Clive Owen, Saskia Reeves and Alan Rickman. Saskia Reeves' character "closes her eyes," pretending that crossing the line and having an incestuous affair with her brother "doesn't count" as cheating on her husband, because it's within the family. All hell breaks loose in the best fight scene I've ever seen on film -so realistic, it's scary. The film lasted with me long after I viewed it. An intelligent rendering of the subject. See more 02/23/2014 Didn't have enough going for it the acting wasn't good though Rickman was fine. Their is no chemistry between the brother/sister relationship to make it believable. the script wants to tackle a taboo but it fails because no one actually cares, including the viewer.
