Pluskylang Great Film overall

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Sam Wilder Not even worth a rental. I feel for Takai to even be on this film... You actually hope that they gave him enough money to appear. The films conflict is not even worth writing on a book. To many of these films have already been put out... there is nothing here that is original... I've seen this film.. uh actually many of this film... here we go... get ready for a spoiler... regular woman... goes under surgery... all of a sudden part of a conspiracy theory... why not just hire Wil smith and Gene hackman to tell the story themselves... this has the plot of a couple of movies I've already seen... unfortunately this one is mal executed... too bad there was no money back guaranty. this is truly a C film... not even a B film... sorry but no cigar... the director should try again. I want my 3.50 back. Only reason I gave it a 2 is because I think Mr. Takai deserves at least.

Nelson Shreve How movies become keepers in my collection is they come back on me for days or weeks after I first see them. They haunt me, in other words, until I purchase a copy. Well, it took seeing Patient 14 a second time on TV to get that kind of grip. First time through I was hooked on the babe, of course, but I missed one of the main points, that noise can drive people crazy if they don't pay attention and tune out the noxious. So here's a movie about how we deal with incoming audio information, good & bad, and there's a lot of bad out there even without super hearing. When the bad guy gets a dose of his own medicine and falls down in agony over what he's hearing, it reminds me of modern day, digitally mixed audio commercials designed to carve searing paths of selective and permanent memory through our brains.

Claudio Carvalho The secretary Liza Raines (Lucy Jenner) becomes deaf after a shooting in a robbery, is evicted and later she is found by the social assistant Grant Kane (John J. York) living in her car. Grant brings Liza to a Transition Shelter to be rehabilitated, and she accepts to be submitted to an experimental treatment never tested in humans in the Center for Hearing Research. The leader of the research Dr. Gene Kramer (John de Lancie) is pressed by the CIA agent Aiden Porter (Costas Mandylor) that is funding his experiment to test his vaccine of restoration of cells in fifteen patients, and he advises that the rats subjected to the experiment became psychotic. The patients also become psychotic and suicidal, with the exception of Liza, the patient 14. She achieves the ability of hearing frequencies emitted by the brain and read minds as a side effect. Porter recruits Liza to work in CIA disclosing the innermost thoughts of the suspects, but later Liza finds his real hidden intentions."The Eavesdropper" is a reasonable movie with an original story that has a great beginning and becomes too much complicated in the end with the betrayals and conspiracies. I thought this movie was a pilot of a show because of the open end. The unknown Lucy Jenner has a great performance, but her character deserved to be better developed in the beginning, showing her past life to the viewers. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Paciente 14" ("Patient 14")

xracerette I absolutely LOVED this movie. I just finished watching it on TV and it was great. The storyline was excellent. The ending left me wanting to watch more and see what happens though. Another movie should be made to let me (and others) know what happens to these people. To the makers of this movie - GREAT JOB!!! Keep making movies like this. The idea of people being out there that can actually do this is a little scary. It will make me wonder if anything I THINK is private. It would be very interesting to be able to do this - not necessarily on a regular basis, but on an as needed basis.It would help to know who is lying and who isn't. It could be a potential dangerous thing as well as a beneficial thing.
