Reviews of My Little Eye 2002

For a depressingly long time now the hottest ticket in television has been the reality TV show. Whether it is 'Big Brother', 'Survivor' or the latest 'Pop Star' themed karaoke contest, our desire to play the voyeur has developed into an obsession.
This trend is even more pronounced on the Internet with a seemingly endless amount of sites dedicated to broadcasting live 24 hours a day, seven days a week regardless of programme content. MY LITTLE EYE, from British director…

The first cut of this movie was allegedly 4 hours long, which you could not pay to me to watch. Even at 90 minutes this thing drags and drags, with almost all the action happening in the last act. It's comparable to something like The House of the Devil, but without the delicate control that Ti West showed there.
It also doesn't help that a lot of this movie's ideas have been done better many times, mostly by movies that…

Great idea that ultimately doesn't work. Over stylised to a point of irritation. At times it feels like it's descended too far into ridiculousness to ever recover but surprisingly it does. The satisfying climax only makes you wish that they'd tried harder in the middle of the film.

Terrible film. No suspense or atmosphere whatsoever, and not a single character you could care about at all. The storyline was barely there, and it was duller than dishwater.

The early century buzz of reality television and streaming media always meant that it wouldn't be long before a horror movie take on them came along. There's been a number of them now, even one entry in to the Halloween franchise, but My Little Eye was one of the first and it's an effective piece of work.

Why this film doesn't get more recognition is beyond me, especially because it stars Bradley Cooper. My Little Eye resembles movies like 'Cube' and 'House of Nine', where you've got a bunch of people in a log cabin, and you observe what ensues.
The movie is pretty bland up until the turning point. This isn't the kind of turning point that kinda creeps up and takes it's time. No. This turning point literally scared the motherfucking life out of me.…
