Wake Up

About This Movie

So 'Wake Up' is a pretty fascinating piece. It dives into the mind of a debt collector who's really on edge, especially on the anniversary of his wife's suicide. The tone is heavy, and you can feel the weight of his despair. The dreamlike sequences are a trip, blending reality with hallucinations, making you question what's real and what’s not. The pacing can feel a bit slow at times, but it adds to that suffocating atmosphere. It's not flashy with effects, but the practical work they did is quite striking. The performance of the lead is raw and honest, steering the emotional core of the story. It’s distinctive in how it captures such a personal hell and translates it visually. Worth a look for sure.

Unique blend of drama, mystery, and sci-fi elements · Intense exploration of mental health themes · Striking dream sequences and practical effects
