Beat out by Hannah Montana’s 29 million dollar open; The Eye opened with only 13 million dollars in its opening weekend. The Eye is a remake of the Hong Kong film “Jian Gui”, a woman who receives an eye transplant that allows her to see the supernatural world. I would like to start out by congratulating the people that did the advertising on this movie; they did a good job on actually making it look like it was going to be good. By filtering out all the crap, and only previewing the good, they succeeded in making me think that it was going to be at least half decent. And it was decent, but nothing more.

                        The movie was good until the end, only because it contradicted itself. Jessica Alba’s character Sydney Wells is blind from the age of 5 until recently. She gets an eye transplant of some sort and starts to see death that has already happened. But through out the movie she is seeing a death that is going to happen and she’s supposed to stop it. It seemed weird to me, maybe it won’t for you, but oh well. Maybe it would have been better if the whole movie was her seeing death that was going to happen, and her trying to stop it instead of switching it up at the last minute.

                        This movie wasn’t scary at all, probably because I’m used to it. But every “scary” part was predictable, and that made it loose its scariness. But all-in-all it was a fairly decent movie. And I’m going to give “The Eye” three kernels of popcorn, because it wasn’t great but it wasn’t a horrible, it was an average “see it at least once” movie. I didn’t find any interesting information on this film at IMDB’s website. But, to get information on when this movie plays go to Carmike Cinemas website, which is linked below:
