Just saw Identity last weekend.
It's about 10 strangers stranded in a storm at a creepy motel all with something to hide. Many of the characters are one-note trapped in a cliche`and the actors perfomances range from layered and excellent (Cusack, as always) to getting deep into the naunces of the character (McGuinley) to Shrill(Duvall) to basially being a prop (De Mornay) but then the movie throws you for a loop and you find outwhat it's all about.
Because it reveals it's hand so early it makes the rest of the film rather anti-cliamtic but it is fascinating to watch it all play out.
I do fear that if this movie has any kind of box office there will be an unfortunate direct-to-video sequel that will diminish all the good things this movie has going for it.
I give it a B.
