Alicia I love this movie so much

Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

King_Kestrel Inner Senses is a solid Chinese horror for those who are die-hard fans of the genre. It has a great soundtrack, a good cast (of people I've never heard of) and an impressive director style. The opening half hour of this movie looks promising; a movie that is truly eerie and is definitely worth a watch. It starts out with some very creepy scares. Past that point, the movie remains pretty eerie and makes you think "oh I think that tense music means a ghost is coming" or "I think I saw the shadow of the ghost in the corner!" but no, it was probably a cameraman. Nothing happens for about an hour. Topped with a confusing ending, the movie falls flat. If you want to see some great Asian horror, watch The Eye, Ju-on The Grudge, or Ringu first, then move on to this. Personally I think the first half-hour makes the latter 70 minutes of dead-time (no pun intended) worthwhile, but there definitely are better alternatives out there.

jmbwithcats The film 'Inner Senses' is almost two movies. The first chapter is about a young female college student, Yan, who sees ghosts. Yan moves into a small apartment alone, and begins to have strange hallucinations, so she sees a doctor, Jim, On the behest of her cousin. Through her vulnerability she starts to fall for her doctor, who is also her professor, but they are able to keep a professional relationship, and she actually gets cured through the reconciliation between her and her estranged parents that Jim orchestrates. The next chapter soon begins though, with Jim and Yan living together, and all is well, until he begins sleepwalking, or rather renews a pattern he lived years ago. He though is in deep denial, and will not believe it is his problem, even when he watches a tape of his nightly activities.We soon find he is haunted by his own ghosts. The love he outgrew and cast aside in high school, who took her life in a terrible way, never resolved, now demands a forum in the hall of the heart. Will he survive the meeting?The film is very touching, with intermittent spooks, well placed, without being overdone, with obvious ideas taken from Hideo Nakata, an overall very enjoyable, and moving film about love, loss, self discovery, and the battle of the mind and heart to move on. Slightly sappy at times, the story and acting are good enough to overlook the flaws. Overall Score 7/10

pawprivate Don't let the put downs deter you. Decide for yourself. This DVD is worth the patience it takes to watch. IF you like the Tomie series, Sixth Sense - etc. - then you will most likely be very pleased with this film. This is a Superb Ghost Story in the tradition of the above - and Ringu! I found it truly moving. It has some truly chilling moments! (The over-the-shoulder-apparition is a classic!) This is a Ten - for me.

bettylewben There are two sides to every coin and in this movie, there are two sides to ghosts. Do they really exist or are they figments of the imagination. What happens when a psychologist, after convincing a patient that ghosts she sees are part her mental illness, begins to see ghosts himself? Now set all that in the context of Chinese folklore and views on ghosts and mental illness and you have a terrific movie!Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing, in his final movie performance, plays Jim, a psychologist who tries to help Yan (Karena Lam), a disturbed young woman who see ghosts. As he gets close to helping her purge her demons, he begins to show signs of some kind of mental disturbance. That's when his demons appear.While others may call this movie a "Sixth Sense" knock-off, I found it to be full of good old-fashion movie scares. Cheung delivers a wonderfully deep and faceted performance, while Lam had me convinced she was seeing ghosts. Second or third viewings of the film wil reveal slight flaws with stunt and make-up but the performances overwhelm any little errors.Much comparison has been and will continue to be made over the events in this film and the death of Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing and that would do a great injustice to this last record of his enormous talent.
