Not very good, I didnt like it much at all it is really hard to get into. I think it way too much like other movies. They should have strayed from the crowd of "seeing the dead" movies I think this is for people into movies like "The Ring". Not a good horror movie at all.

Surprisingly fun to watch remake... or was it simply because Jessica Alba's in it?

the film is freaky, tense & jumpy. jessica alba is getting better. an enjoyable horror that your girlfriend can enjoy :)
Well produced, well acted little movie that sadly just doesn't deliver the goods. This is possibly Alba's most grown up role yet, but she has to act in a deep sea of muck that just gets more and more dull as it goes along at a snail's pace. There's a few decent scares here and there and a small amount of suspense, but it can't compare to its source material.
The Eye is a decent remake and people who haven't seen the original might enjoy this.
The eye is about Sydney (Jessica Alba), a blind violinist getting a transplant and she can see again. Unfortunately she encounters ghosts and spirits that are trying to tell her something. I'm actually surprised at the remake of 'The eye'. It actually was scary in a few parts and was a step up in Jessica Alba's acting direction. Although there are some parts I didn't like in 'The eye'. The only really main issue with 'The eye' is that it's not scary but at the same time it's interesting and actually works as a remake and a film.
This was a very solid film from begininng to end. The suspense was good, the acting very solid and very atmospheric so that you almost felt like you were part of the film. Very well made for a PG-13 flick. If you haven't bought this one I highly recommend it on Blu-Ray!
It reminded me a little too much of The Ring—as in, they ripped it off in structure—but overall it was okay. Nothing amazing, but a lot more quality than almost any other PG-13 horror movie I’ve seen. At least they showed the chick hanging herself, you know. Most other PG-13 horror movies would have cut off at that point, but this wasn’t that cheap.
They avoided all the obvious clichés I was sure they would use, which made me happy. They also focused more on daily life things than on the overdone horror elements. I think both these facts made it a lot more unnerving and mildly scary.
I’m just glad it was made with quality. It really was not bad at all.
I loved the original and went in with pretty low expectations -- but this is a damn good movie. One of the best remakes I can think of and I highly recommend this to any fan of subtle horror.
When i was watching one missed call i said well the eye and shutter well be the same so by watch them.But i decided to watch them and let mke tell you the eye is one of the best remakes ive seen in the past years(including the ring)because it haves scares other ghost japanese remakes dont have,a very good ending,some blood and gore and the exploding cars scene was great so i totally recomend you to watch this one.
I was excited to go see the Eye as soon as it came out! One because Jessica Alba was in it and, 2 because It was a remake! One thing you all need to know about me is I love remakes! This movie started off good and, was scary for a pg-13 rated movie. But, by the middle all the ghosts were gone and they went to Mexico. Once alba wanted to know who donated the eyes the movie got pretty boring until the end. all in all this movie was all right. Could have been better but, i still liked it.
