What makes it different from others?

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

This movie was awful for reasons stated by others. But the ending made it beyond idiotic. The idea that someone can be retried in another state after being found not guilty somewhere else is ridiculous. Double jeopardy does attach. And the "confession" would be thrown out as coerced. At least give us a premise that's not insulting!

The core of this movie is so ridiculous. hostages are not afraid and act super normal . and the EYE thing is most ridicules part of this movie!

Well, rarely do I write reviews for a film which could be acted out on stage, but despite its terrible reviews, I have to give this a 6/10 for the plot twist alone. I didn't it see coming, and it was quite original. 6 strangers are tied up and bound in a cellar. They all have no idea how they got there. Along the way, they are told that only 1 will leave alive, and it's up to them to decide which one. As the plot goes along, we find that a government agency is behind it, and there is a secret reason they are all there. But is the reason given true, or is there something else going on? They all confess to being sinners, but despite the flashbacks we are shown, can their confessions be trusted?"The Eyes" is not a well acted film, but to be honest, there is a reason for that too, as you will understand at the end. One can argue that this is hardly a film by normal standards. It's a play that happens to be acted out on film, and despite its wooden Direction and shoe string budget, who cares? I wasn't expecting Doctor Zhivago, and for those who expect "Saw" because of the setup? Not even the same Genre. What we really have here is an elaborate game being played out- a cat and mouse tale, whose sole purpose is to set up a very unique and clever twist which made it worth watching. It held my attention throughout, and the twist was the icing on the cake. As time goes on "being original" is becoming harder and harder. They at least tried something clever. It does keep you guessing, and the ending makes it worthwhile for those who are willing to hang with it..

I seen bad TV-movies, really cheap, with budget around maybe 1 000 or 2 000. But this! This something, internet companies like amazon, netflix, hbo - invest good money in series, but original films - one lousy another. This film maybe cost around 200 bucks, and half of that go on food. And maybe actors play for this food. Who knows? But script not so bad, just... call this theatrical play or something, don't sell it like it is a film, because its don't. And Vincent Pastore! Oh my god! What an actor... really, he was ridiculously bad.
