The Eye (Two-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy) Overview

Sydney Wells is blind and has been so since a childhood tragedy. After undergoing surgery to restore her sight she learns to see again. But soon after, unexplainable shadowy and frightening images start to haunt her. Not knowing if they are an aftermath of surgery, her mind adjusting to sight, her imagination, or something horrifyingly real, Sydney is soon convinced that her anonymous eye donor has somehow opened the door to a terrifying world only she can now see.

The Eye (Two-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy) Specifications

Jessica Alba can see dead people in The Eye, the umpteenth Hollywood remake of an Asian horror film. The source material is Korean directors Danny and Oxide Pang's chilling 2002 feature of the same name, and the remake (by French directors David Moreau and Xavier Palud, who made 2006's Them) sticks to the basic facts of the original. Here, Alba is a blind concert musician who undergoes a corneal transplant; the catch is that while the operation restores her sight, it also allows her to glimpse the spirits of the dead that pass among the living, as well as the underworld figures that bring them to the beyond. The frustration and terror of Alba's predicament makes for a compelling story, but while the film is executed with the utmost of professionalism, the scares (the picture's raison d'etre) are delivered in the same ham-fisted manner as any big-budget horror film of the last few years. The result is another disappointing American remake that underscores how the international film community has become more successful at delivering yet another of our most quintessential film genres. -- Paul Gaita

Horror Movies Customer Reviews

I saw the Korean version of The Eye online, and found it to be very confusing (and pointless), sometimes. In that version, I felt like some of the scariest moments were just thrown in without explanation. However, this version does not explain well the reasons of fear. This is a film where fear will make you jump. It is not blood, and is a kind of action film. Jessica Alba makes a great job of acting like she is blind, and his reaction to suddenly being able to seeperfect sense. I like how they kept in that part of the boy looking for his report card. ;) I prefer this version to the Korean one, although it is heavily based on it. I would recommend viewing both films. I am buying this movie from Amazon, because my first copy that I bought from a grocery store had some scratches on the disc. It 's definitely a movie to watch many times.



Horror and Drama - Petra Calman - Mt. Hood, Oregon, USA
This film is a good mix of horror, drama and thrillers. Jessica Alba plays a talented musician names of Sydney who has lost the sight in early childhood. Sydney has the chance to get the rear view through a donor. She is so happy to see again and the surgery went very smoothly, but soon things begin to happen and I do not know whether they are real or just a dream. Decided to find out who the donor of her eyes was. Surprising twists to the end. Very good film acting and took myattention to the end.




Neither scary or interesting - zck7592 -
When you could see the previews you may think that "The Eye" is a scary movie. But this is not the case! "The Eye" is not afraid at all, which is probably why the plot is not interesting enough to even care what is happening.

"The Eye" is about Sydney Wells (Jessica Alba), who has been blind since a tragedy early in life. He has a great passion for music, which feeds his desire to see music, not just heard. Sydney decides to have a double corneal transplant, whichrestores sight. While she is recovering from the operation begins to see things that are not there. Once this becomes a reoccurring factor, believes that the donor could be seen in a different world.

"The Eye" has never really held my interest at any point in the film. The film is a scary or interesting, at any level.
