Seriously messes with your head, 4 November 2003
10/10
Author: Chrissie from Incheon, Korea

Identity is right up with "The Sixth Sense" for suspense, surprise, and leaving you going, "What's happening?!" I just got out of the theater, and I'm going back tomorrow to see where the clues are that I missed. What a roller-coaster ride!
