Review of The Awakening (2011) by Jennie R — 18 Apr 2013
I found this really slow and boring. When it finally started to get interesting, the movie takes its twist and throws it up in the air and lets it just randomly fall down. It is not planned or executed out well at all and just makes this a waste of a great idea.
Very similar to "The Sixth Sense" and "The Others". The difference is that the great reveal makes you think back through the whole movie and want to see it again. This movie makes you go "Huh?" and shut the player off promptly to forget the whole experience.
