Product Description:
What if every choice we ever make was already made for us? What if there really were no coincidences in life and our destinies were already predetermined? Ten strangers with secrets are brought together in a savage rainstorm: A limo driver (John Cusack) an '80s TV star (Rebecca DeMornay) a cop (Ray Liotta) who is transporting a killer (Jake Busey) a call girl (Amanda Peet) a pair of newlyweds (Clea DuVall and William Lee Scott) and a family in crisis (John C. McGinley Leila Kenzle Bret Loehr) all take shelter at a desolate motel run by a nervous night manager (John Hawkes). Relief in finding shelter is quickly replaced with fear as the ten travelers begin to die one by one. They soon realize that if they are to survive they'll have to uncover the secret that has brought them all together.System Requirements:Running Time: 90 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MYSTERY/SUSPENSE Rating: R UPC: 043396005396 Manufacturer No: 00539

Amazon.com:
With an ace up its sleeve, Identity does for schizophrenia what The Silence of the Lambs did for fava beans and a nice chianti. On the proverbial dark and stormy night, this anxiety-laced thriller offers a tasty blend of And Then There Were None and Psycho, with a dash of Sybil for extra spice and psychosis. Things go from bad to worse when 10 unrelated travelers converge at an isolated motel and proceed to die, one by one, with no apparent connection... until they discover the common detail that's drawn them into this nightmare of relentless trauma. Even as it flunks Abnormal Psychology 101, Michael Cooney's screenplay offers meaty material for a superior ensemble cast including John Cusack and Rebecca DeMornay (who wins the Janet Leigh prize in a bitchy comeback role). Director James Mangold pivots the action around one character (played by his Heavy star, Pruitt Taylor Vince, in eye-twitching cuckoo mode), and half the fun of Identity comes from deciphering who's who, what's what, and who'll be the next to die. --Jeff Shannon

- good movie
I bought this ised dvd since i am a john cusack fan. It's not one of his best but had a good plot.

Rating:

- CONTRIVED AND CONVOLUTED
I don't blame the actors or the talented director who guided this confusing mess through an endless series of contrived and mindless twists and turns. Nope. The problem clearly is just this: the script is entirely B.S.

Those who liked Usual Suspects (a film I thoroughly hated) and who enjoy the work of Hitchcock (a director who never did anything for me) ought to get off on this fakery.

Like I said, cast is very good, with the exception of Jake Busey.

- A pleasant surprise of a movie!
Identity brings to the screen a group of people converging on a motel in the middle of nowhere during a terrible storm. When the first bodies appear they soon realize that they are not all what they seem to be...
There are slight hints of Clue and Agatha Christie with a touch of the X-Files so the movie falls into the action/adventure/mystery/thriller/horror type of category.
John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Alfred Molina, Ray Liota, and most of the rest of the cast carry out their performances ... Read More

- One of the best psychological thrillers I've ever seen
This always comes up on my "recommend a movie" list when friends ask. Even though it's a bit of a slash film, it's not graphic as far as slash films go, and it has a very compelling storyline. It's unpredictable and it's one of those films that make you jump because you realize it actually is possible for something like this to happen, though you may not fully realize that until after the movie ends.

It's not very likely in real life for a bunch of people to get stranded at a motel with an ... Read More

- Good movie- but note
This is overall a good film as long as you stay away from spoilers.

I thought that the plot was very interesting but I found the ending to be slightly predictable- the person who ended up commiting the murders and the murder of someone towards the very end was something that I saw coming.

Sort of a Spoiler Here- The plot twist of making the least predictable person the murderer has been played out already.
