Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

dancenog Well,well. This is a corker of a movie. I like the fact it makes you think. There are points open to debate. The story starts with a man with amnesia, recovering from a car crash and reeling from losing 2 years of his life. He doesn't recognise his wife etc. Then, game changer, the strands of what happened begin to unravel.... .....spoilers on total plot/discussion: so if im right, then people are correct in saying that he just about survived the accident. the brief moments he was still alive the people he was around (paramedic/doctor etc)were what his brain was trying to process. None of the events past the crash happened. He was dying and his brain was trying to piece together events, people, and explanations. hence the changing events, back n forth- just his brain waves trying to compute. The event doesn't take place between 2000 and 2002. That's his minds starting point and end point of the event due to the time he died being 20:00 and 20:02 being when his brain functions ceased. Rather than the events being seen by him as he experienced them, it is his Minds Eye (I inside, inside eye) which created possible events to join the dots from start point 20:00 to 20:02

Rodrigo Amaro This is like seeing a good runner giving his best efforts while running to later be stopped because someone out of the blue crosses his path causing him to lose the race or get in the second or third place. You feel bad for that kind of situation. Just like the runner "The I Inside" begins with lot of promise to later become uninteresting and dull, almost laughable at parts.It got me completely hooked at first but then little by little the lack of suspense prevented the movie from being nice to follow and the confusion towards the ending messed up the whole thing big time. It's fun to give it a shot at the life of a man (Ryan Phillippe) who after an accident wakes up from the coma, barely remembering anything, developing the strange ability to go back and forth between the space of two years. But he needs to fill the gaps in his mind: What really happened to him? Who are these people surrounding me? I'm married? Did I killed my brother? There's plenty of mystery to be solved before he loses his mind. And it gets better when he realizes his power to in between the years to change his past and his future (or maybe recollect his memories in another way). By the time you reach the ending "The I Inside" is no longer appealing. It had great potential but got lost somewhere. One of the writers was the same one who wrote the amazing "Identity" with John Cusack and a great cast involved in a mysterious and surprising plot with a twisted ending that haunts me for years. Sure, there's a huge plot twist in this too but it's so ineffective that only causes small reactions in the audience. Luckily, the cast doesn't disappoint and it's a miracle seeing Stephen Lang playing a good guy for once.All I can say is that "The Butterfly Effect" was way better than this. 4/10

wes-connors "When Simon (Ryan Phillippe) awakens in the hospital after surviving a near-fatal accident, amnesia has erased the last two years from his memory. He learns that his brother (Robert Sean Leonard) was killed, he has married a woman he doesn't remember (Piper Perabo)… and he's haunted by strange visions of the woman he loved (Sarah Polley). Soon, he starts to uncover the truth behind his brother's death and unravel the unbelievable turns his life has taken…" Actually (or perhaps not…), Mr. Phillippe falls in love with his estranged brother's fiancée (Ms. Polley), which results in a violent confrontation - and, an even more tragic car accident, involving all three. Roland Suso Richter's direction of Michael Cooney's "Point of Death" is intriguing, engrossing, and imaginatively plotted. But, the ending does not really fulfill the film's promises - and, the lead character's relationships with both brother and lover lack passion. Still, it's more good than not.****** The I Inside (2003) Roland Suso Richter ~ Ryan Phillippe, Piper Perabo, Sarah Polley

shiftyeyeddog I've never liked the idea of test screenings. The changes they make just end up neutering a movie and making it "safe" for the general masses. But if ever a movie needed feedback to prompt a rewrite and alternate ending, this is it. The first half of this movie is spectacular. It's atmospheric, tense, and confusing (in a good way). It kept you guessing the whole way. Much like Memento, it's an intelligent film that makes you watch closely and think. The story could have gone a number of directions....but the last half, it all falls apart. They start changing the "rules", the suspense gives way to straight storytelling, and the ending goes a completely different direction than it could have, and SHOULD have. It's not just that I didn't like the ending or that it didn't match my predictions. The problem is the truth is still unclear and viewers are left confused. Too much is left unexplained. As it is, the film is wasted potential. A good story and a good movie, but one that could have been so much better with a different ending.
