Review of Trance (2013) by Cthetav — 07 Apr 2013

This film is touted as a mind bending thriller the likes of Inception. It sadly falls very short of greatness. This film tries to mess with the audiences head and then gives up half way through before dumping major plot points in the audiences lap.

The story follows James Macavoys' character who has helped in the theft of a painting but after a bump on the head can't remember where he left it. Que hypnotism and wandering what is real and what isn't if it were achieved properly(it isn't).

This film is ultimately let down by a simple plot masquerading as a complex and deep psychological thriller.
