    The plot has more holes in it than a tea bag and the film should come with a warning label: don't go see with anyone with even a modicum of medical knowledge, because they'll surely spend the film huffing and rolling their eyes skyward

    Awake aims high, it tries so hard to work as a modern-day Hitchcock thriller. Yet it is reliant solely on plot twists (I counted a whopping four twists in total, I just felt dizzy after that) the tissue connecting each twist together is just too flimsy and obvious to make the film work as an effective thriller. Awake? No, Asleep? yes!

    Dull and disappointing…Love the idea, but the casting was all wrong, two actors who can’t, well act. Is it too early to ask for a remake? Probably not in this season of remakes - Awake 2009! (I’ll pay again depending on the cast)
