Develiker terrible... so disappointed.

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

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")

J M The premise that a person could hear other peoples thoughts all the time would of course be distressing to the person involved, however, the way that it's implemented into this film is that you, the viewer, have to listen to the same constant babble of peoples thoughts while trying to work out what is being discussed in the current conversation.Trying to listen to several different voices at once and trying to understand what they are all saying makes this film a very stressful one to watch. Ideally you'd just pay attention to the main conversation but they're at a volume that makes this just not possible.To be honest, I didn't watch this film all the way through, I can't recommend it.
