The Eye(2003)- User Reviews

Very very creepy, yet really sad also

Mun has been blind since the age of two, and wants to see. When she's twenty, she finally gets the chance to get a cornea transplant. But the surgery has a terrifying side effect.

"The Eye" is a new film from Hong Kong, which really went beyond my expectations. I really enjoyed this movie. It wasn't particularly a masterpiece work of psychological horror, as it had a few flaws and many jump scares, but I'm the type of person that can accept that. I really liked the long tense scenes, and the scares that payed them off. And you can't help but feel bad for the main character: Angelica Lee gives a very beautiful sad performance as Mun. Same goes for Chutcha Rujinanon (Ling). And I thought the ending was pretty much a work of art (even though it was highly depressing, it was still very beautiful and touching).

So, what else can I say? This film was great. Highly recommended, and make sure you have a tissue box handy, along with clean underwear. This is one film I doubt I will ever forget.
