Alba in Another Stinker
23 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Jessica Alba is one of those actors/actresses that I know well, yet I've only seen in a few movies and they all stink. "Idle Hands," "Awake," "The Veil," "Fantastic Four," and yes, even "Sin City." So how is she so popular?

Add this movie to the rubbish pile.

In this trash heap Jessica Alba plays a blind woman named Sydney Wells who gets a cornea transplant and then guess what? She could see dead people. Her cornea donor, who was from Mexico of all places (I didn't know Americans got organs from donors in different countries), could see dead people and passed on that "gift." We find this out after Sydney did the obligatory scary movie research and found out what happened to her cornea donor. With the help of her doctor, who made their relationship all too personal, she found out the information she needed, went to Mexico, saved a little girl who'd never seen a door lock before, then lost her eyes again. Whatever little good will this movie may have had going for it, it was totally discarded in the last twenty minutes.
