Identity (R) 7.5

Identity (2003): Stranded at a desolate Nevada motel during a nasty rain-storm, ten strangers become acquainted with each other when they realize that they're being killed off one by one. (7.3)

Director: James Mangold
Writer: Michael Cooney
Stars: John Cusack, Ray Liotta, Amanda Peet

A brilliant story and excellent storytelling.  Nothing in it is what it seems like on the surface. My only quibble is that they killed off Rebecca DeMornay's character quite early, so we didn't get to see her that much. We get to suspect pretty much everyone at one point or the other. Then the end throws quite a few twists. This is one of those movies where you have to think about what just happened after you are done watching the whole thing. John Cusack is quite good in playing a dramatic role. My Rating: 7.5
