Gordon-11 This film tells the story of five people who agree to spend six months in a house in the middle of nowhere, in return they will get one million dollars. The catch is that no one will get paid if anyone leaves the house.I confess that I only watched "My Little Eye" only for Bradley Cooper. I expected it to be a terrible film, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The plot is captivating and thrilling, because the characters and the viewers don't know what is truly happening. Hence, I have no idea how the film will end. Every twist is a surprise, and keeps me guessing what is really happening! When the truth is revealed an hour into the film, I am completely captivated by the plot, and I can hardly catch my breath. I enjoyed watching it a lot!

suite92 Six fools agree to live in one house for six months. They get a million dollars if they succeed. Does the desire for money overcome one's other obligations?Part of the proceedings occur in the Canadian winter, and the furnace breaks down.Are the crows and owls in the attic bad omens or just something one should expect (cold winter, relatively warm attic)?The packages from the outside tend to contain messages to the individuals. The six contestants always hope for food. During the film they get bricks (sad tale from the younger days of one of the women) and a letter notifying the death in the family of one of the contestants; the next package has champagne and a gun (gun violence in the past of one of the men).The 'bloody' hammer next to one of the women in bed one morning was a further shift.A visitor drops in who is an internet programmer. He's never heard of them. Not a good sign. Before leaving, the visitor steals a piece of Emma's underwear and hides it in Danny's room. Emma feels OK invading everyone else's space. Great stuff.Soon after the visitor leaves they find some of his gear near the drop site with blood on it.Emma keeps asserting his guilt; Danny hangs himself. Game over, according to the rules. They radio for help. No one responds.Rex cobbles together an internet connection. He cannot find any reference to their contest. Hence no subscribers. The company that planned the contest has a stub beta site with heavy encryption, or so it seems.Then they get to see the betting odds on each of their characters. As in many mysteries, it's 'follow the money.'----Scores----Cinematography: 7/10 Better than web-cam quality, but not always by much. Some of the exteriors were just fine. The split screens (multiple points of view) were sometimes interesting. The switches from narration filming (good, steady, well done) to the POV of the reality show camera people (so-so to poor web-cams) is a little jarring.Sound: 4/10 Bad microphone problems, but incidental sounds are much creepier than the oddly planned visuals.Acting: 5/10 Fine if you like twenty-somethings who still reside in the teen maturity range.Screenplay: 9/10 Initial objectives seem clear enough. The actual objectives take time to surface. It's an old theme (snuff films) updated to the Internet setting (online betting, current video).

xanderfaulk-629-298488 After having bought My Little Eye two days ago for a measly 1.99, I was anticipating rushing home to put on my surround sound headphones and hopefully enjoying this film. I'm a fan of the whole found footage/mockumentary sub genre and ever since the TV ads sparked on the TV to be viewed by my six year old self, I have been looking to watch this.The film is about 5 random citizens who take part in a Big Brother-esque web reality show where the have to stay 6 months in a secluded area, if they last they win 100 Million Dollars (Each, I'm not sure)However,if one person leaves they ALL lose.Without spoiling too much, towards the end of there stay, weird and creepy things start to happen that escalate to a bloody ending.I really enjoyed this film, the acting, the camera-work, the story is great and for me is very engaging as it also works as a satire of all that reality TV crap everybody seems obsessed with nowadays. The ending shifts the film from a creepy thriller to a full blooded horror which may change people's opinions about the film positively or negatively, but I still found it entertaining.The film is overall a very bleak, disturbing, rude and violent film, that most people should like if they are into this sort of film.I suggest getting the special DVD edition as it comes with many extras and an interactive viewing mode which gives a lot more insight and footage into the story,characters, squashes plot holes and answers questions not explained in the standard edition (The film was originally 4 hours long) So it's good so this interesting interactive experience as it adds more replay value to the film. Not saying that the standard version isn't good, its that the interactive extra adds a WHOLE lot more.There are people absolutely hating this film, saying its the worst film they have ever seen. They obviously don't watch much movies. They can, not like it, but its not one of the worst films ever made in the least. Give this film a chance...

Raul Faust Much like "House of 9", this movie is about 5 twenties who get into a reality show a little different from what they thought it was.In the beginning it runs kinda slowly, but after the first death it becomes more involving and intriguing. "My Little Eye" looks amateurish and low-budget, but that's what brings reality to this kind of movie.It has its tense moments, its suspenseful moments and was very good after creating a creepy atmosphere. "House of 9" was released 3 years after this one and seemed to have copied many things of this movie, but they did a much better job there. They had better casting, better plot and a much better ending with philosophical thoughts. But after all, it's still a good movie that deserves to be more known than it currently is.
