Amazon.com Lindsay Lohan made a bid for stardom in a grown-up role with this overripe thriller, in which a serial killer's attack causes her personality to shift from model student to sultry stripper. The burlesque queen (named Dakota) may or may not be the subject of a writing exercise by student Aubrey, but once the latter is abducted and mutilated by a vicious killer, the former takes over, much to the consternation of Aubrey's parents (Julia Ormond and Neal McDonough). Director Chris Sivertson (who proved his knack for suspenseful material with The Lost) works hard to gild the nonsensical script with as much visual panache as possible (and he's mostly successful), but there's no getting past the dreary violence or Lohan's performance, which flounders in its attempt to deliver raw sexuality. Lohan's off-screen difficulties helped sink the picture during its brief theatrical run; undoubtedly, her stage routines (which are featured in an extended version on the disc's extras) will be the DVD's chief point of interest, as the movie itself is too flimsy to draw much attention on its own. The supplemental features also include an alternate opening and conclusion (which add nothing to the final product) and a blooper reel. -- Paul Gaita Extras from I Know Who Killed Me Beyond I Know Who Killed Me at Amazon.com  On Widescreen |  CD Soundtrack |

A breathtakingly visual but mediocre film November 8, 2008 If you have the chance to see this film in high-definition, I'd actually really recommend it. The strength of the film is all in the visual world it presents, from the very start to the very end. Bright, vivid and beautiful spots of blue, red and a merging purple gives it an unusual and bravely bold yet limited palette. The computer generated imagery serves to cross the threshold between dreams and waking, and watching it is fantastic.
But what's underneath all this exterior? Visuals is not enough to make a good film, and unfortunately that really comes across here. The plot itself is not much more than a run-of-the-mill TV whodunit, the writing is filled with oddities (and bizarre sequences), and the flaws of the film are made all the more apparent by the weak acting throughout. Lindsay Lohan is so eager to break out of her wholesome Disney-image that she overplays the entire film, making her an actress going through the motions without making the effort of connecting to the audience.
There are moments when the score works almost as beautifully as its images, but unfortunately it quickly deteriorates and becomes little more than noise on good instruments by the end.
I Know Who Killed Me is a gorgeous presentation of a lucklaster movie. A hollow box wrapped in very neat packaging. It's not entertaining, but it's startling to watch.
Worst Movie Ever? October 3, 2008 I saw this movie in theaters, expecting something scary, or at the very least, interesting. I used to be a Lindsay Lohan fan, despite the tabloids. After this movie, however, I can't be a fan. This is the worst movie I have ever seen. Seriously, out of every movie I have ever watched in my life this was the biggest waste of time. Guys might like it because she does a stripper dance, but I was thoroughly unimpressed and disappointed. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.
Ouch, what a confusing mess and this in high-def September 7, 2008 I wanted to like it but I gave up. The story is confusing and the director seems to think that changing colors from one scene to the next would look interesting - it doesn't. Miss Lohan isn't a bad actress I think but this role was just plain awful for her. And I don't only mean the second part where she is kind of handicapped. And by the way: It is not really an erotic movie. And I mention this as a guy.
The higher resolution and clarity of colors make this movie actually worse than it would have been on a somewhat blurry standard definition DVD. I don't really know what else to say about this movie - let's just forget about it and watch the next one, I guess.
To Catch a Killer September 1, 2008 After hearing so many negative things surround I KNOW WHO KILLED ME, my curiosity was immediately piqued. Carrying Lindsay Lohan, a once rising star whom had gained back my interest by a great performance in Emilio Estevez's Bobby, everybody seemed to universally pan her performance as well as the film itself saying it was stupid, relentless, unworthy, etc. I could only expect the worse though I prepared to like it as well because that usually ends up happening. The results on how I feel about this one are strange to say the least.
Aubrey Fleming (Lindsay Lohan) is a good high school senior who has her life set before her. She is abducted one night and returned days later with missing limbs that have been chopped off by a supposed serial-killer who had recently abducted another girl whom he had killed. These are the least of the problems. She now claims her name is Dakota Moss (also Lohan), a down-on-her-luck stripper, who has no idea who Aubrey or her family is or who in the world did this to her. As days begin to unravel, Dakota slowly reveals a mystery of Aubrey, whom she thinks may be her twin and that the two can experience each others pain. If she doesn't hurry and catch the real killer, the two may both end up with the same fate.
I actually liked Lindsay Lohan's portrayal of Aubrey and Dakota. There was subtelty in the way both of them presented themselves but in the long shot you could see the difference between the characters from a long-shot and for me this ultimately helped not feel it was Lohan as many have attested. I was constantly trying to figure out whether the film would have a stupid ending in which it really was her the entire time but luckily it does not exist here. The main problem is simply that Lohan did not try. It seems like she didn't really care about either of their characters or their situation and thus her performance was mediocre but she did make the best of terrible dialogue. What's even worse is that she's the best of the entire cast.
Everybody from Brian Geraghty to Julia Ormond, a seemingly grounded cast with plenty of experience to their names (or just as much as, if not more than, Lohan) flat out crash and burn with the horribly written dialogue. Characters such as the detectives are played truthfully but are such small roles overpowered by the badly portrayed ones that you don't even care at a certain point. Lohan did try to carry the film on her own but I think once she realized how poor everyone else was anyway there was no point in trying to actually make the film good no matter what she did.
This film had a lot of potential, even if slightly unbelievable and with a terrible ending. The torture scenes were exactly what they were made for...torture. I was grinding my teeth while watching the scenes in which an innocent Aubrey is mercilessly tortured, they were so effective. You'll be thankful you have your limbs after this. The cinematography is also a redeeming quality. The beauty of the colors between the two characters, Aubrey being blue and Dakota being red, became a known entity to the audience even when they weren't sure what was happening to the characters and/or character. It was definitely overdone but the colors vibrancy and beauty in the scenes helped to save this.
Despite setbacks, the film has redeeming qualities I felt picked up for the other parts. I gave it three stars because the film is one of those that you want to like but you're not sure if you like it or if you didn't. It's not a love or hate situation for this film it's either like or don't like. I chose to leave it as ok even though I wish I could decide whether or not I like it. People will be left scratching their heads at this. Lindsay can definitely look back at this and say, not where she went wrong, but where she has room to improve and I'm sure everyone else on the entire cast and crew is probably thinking the exact same thing.
A few holes here and there but it kept me intrigued August 23, 2008 Okay, I'm going to say first hand that I adore Ms. Lohan and have since she was a child. I grew up with her for the most part. She was a big draw as to why I wanted to see this and despite her media attention, her personal life should have nothing to do with her professional life.
The movie wasn't the best, some of the acting was bad, but sometimes even with great movies you an have one or two that over-act things.
The twist on the storyline is actually a good one and I think a lot of people who are complaining about the twist perceive it as impossible. I don't believe that so it made the movie very interesting for me.
I wasn't crazy about the ending and I had a lot of questions, but all in all it wasn't an awful movie.
If you are a fan of hers, buy it for your collection. If you're not a fan of hers, rent it and watch it to give it back, but it is worth a watch.
