Awesome movie Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This horror movie is probably one of the scariest movie i've ever seen. I really like cause it has scary scenes through out the whole movie. It's not one of the movies where it's only scary at the end or the beginning. It also has a really good story line to it too. I've seen a lot of horror movies and this is still my number 1.

Scary Stuff. Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I finally decided to watch this after hearing there would be a Hollywood remake starring Jessica Alba (which is good too!).

Any sort of Chinese language is Greek to me, (Japanese is my language) and for some reason it made it that bit more interesting. This is the first non-Japanese horror I've ever watched and I was blown away. Of course, those who know Asian horror will be aware that little cultural things will make it that bit more scarier, like Ringu for example. I enjoyed the film, but it didn't scare me at all. However, my native Japanese friends have told me that they couldn't even watch it at some parts. I will admit to being a bit wary that I wouldn't be as scared because I didn't know the cultural folk stories that some towns and races have been raised with.

Alas, this film freaked me out to the core. Even the opening credits, with the hands scratching and grabbing the white sheet was spine tingling. The plot itself is actually quite a sad story but nonetheless scary! Very scary! Alot of parts are "blink-and-you'll-miss-it", but these are what make The Eye special. Its like "Was I supposed to see that?! Is that actually THERE?!" This film is very good. Directing, actors and story.

For some top class Asian horror, I recommend The Eye.

great Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
one of my favourite movies great performances and effects. The subtitles are perfect, as is the picture and audio. I have seen the whole trilogy and this is by far the best, if you like this one then skip the others.

One of the Better Ones.... Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
This show was one of the blockbuster here in my country when it first came out.I have to say i was very impressed with Angelica Lee and am proud that she won award in her role here and to be representing our country is another achievement.

Quite a scary show and i will never forget when she was in the lift scene.Pretty scary when it's you alone riding in the lift at night.Would reccommend people to buy this first one instead of The Eye 2.

Eye of the Beholder Customer Review Rated Bad 5 - 5 out of 10
This is more of a suspense drama about the paranormal than a true horror film . Unlike most other Chinese "horror" movies it does not mix a lot of silly humor in to spoil the story. This film is not great a supernatural thriller but was entertaining. It is uncomfortable to contemplate the possibility of visually perceiving the unsettled spirits that walk amongst us.

good Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
The reflection in the subway.(MTR). I don't think it is a reflection of a ghost but of a passenger on the other side of the subway just as we would see the driver as we sit on the passenger side. The scary part to me got to be the elevator scene. I go up in the elevator everyday at work...Now, I make sure it is full before entering. But I don't find it as scary as my friend said it would be...

Don't miss this movie. You can't find one better t Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Plot
Man (Angelica Lee), a strong but gentle young woman has been blind since she was 2. Yet she has never felt sorry for herself and is loved by her grandmother and protected fiercely by her elder sister (Candy Lo). One day she receives a gift from an unknown donor, a cornea transplant in which she is given the chance to see again. From the moment she first opens her eyes to a blurry world, to the day she is able to see clearly, she realises her returning sight also comes with something she never bargained for - she realises she is able to see restless ghosts and spirits who in turn know she is able to see them too. Paralysed with fear and feeling ever more helpless, she retreats back to her own "blind" state, refusing to walk out of her room, until Wah, her physiotherapist doctor who is in love with her seeks to find the truth of her third eye, the eye which sees many things science nor logic is able to explain. This leads them to Thailand and to a shocking truth that could kill Man or liberate her from her pain.

Comments
It's very rare for me to pay to see a Chinese movie in a movie theatre except for a Stephen Chow or a Jackie Chan movie. It has to be either extremely funny or extremely entertaining with action packed sequences. But I went to the cinema to watch this movie after reading glowing reviews in my local newspaper, which was a rare accolade given to a Chinese movie made anywhere in the world other than China and by Ang Lee. Since there was our own Malaysian girl, Angelica Lee Sin-Je, in the movie (where her performance in Sunshine Cops did nothing to impress me), I thought a good scary movie should be quite alright. Nothing can screw up a scary movie unless it's a scary movie that doesn't scare me. This scary movie is in a class of its own.

Whilst every single frame would remind you of Sixth Sense, after the entire length of the movie I began to see Sixth Sense as a rather entertaining spooky movie with a very white washed content, which basically means it tells a story but not the entire story. The Eye would in effect explain to us why having the ability to see ghosts and predict death is actually a curse and not a gift like Sixth Sense would like you to believe. It ain't cool to be able to see dead people floating in front of you, screaming at you.

In the Sixth Sense we have docile ghosts who mainly have unfinished business. In this movie we have angry ghosts, hungry ghosts, pitiful ghosts who could not leave this world if they could not realise their unfinished business. The beauty of this movie and the story is that it is told completely from the viewpoint of Man, a girl who could not see and when she could she'd rather she was blind. Whilst this movie offers twists after twists, turns after turns, new plots after another, it was never tiresome and in the end all lose ends were tied up neatly with one neat conclusion: "Ignorance IS Bliss". But that's not the entire message of this movie.

When Man began to see strange images, like an old lady being led away by a dark figure, or an old woman in a hospital screaming she was cold and floating towards her menacingly and then disappearing into thin air, or a lost little boy looking for his report card, you will realise there are many ghosts in this world - most are quite pitiful and also very lost, and thus angry.

One of the saddest scenes would be the little boy who lost his report card, told his parents who did not believe him and rather than being reprimanded by his parents, jumped off the building thus killing himself and leaving his parents grieving. Man who had just received the transplant saw this little boy always asking, "Did you see my report card" in front of her house not realising that he was ghost. Her grandmother knew and quietly sought the help of a Taoist master to help the boy with his wish without alarming Man. And then Man began to see more things; like a young boy running on the street and passing through her body and then
