so far fetched that I couldn't swallow the story
May 02, 2008
Outlandish, preposterous, contrived,and implausible thriller which happens to be fun if you ignore the fact that it's outlandish,preposterous,contrived and implausible.

With a couple of more drafts to mend the plot holes and restructure the middle act, Awake could have been saved.

Less painful than having your chest cut open, but a disagreeable experience just the same.

Awake is a pleasing if negligible diversion.

A medical thriller with a noggin full of novocaine, this shocker about a botched heart surgery evidently suffered brain surgery to match.

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.

[Joby] Harold's script has a surprise or three in it, a biggy near the end. But he's a director with no poker face. He tips his hand early and often.
June 05, 2008
Writer-director Joby Harold's debut is stylishly self-assured and suspenseful enough to quicken the pulse.

Se um ator admirável como Terrence Howard surge tão constrangedor neste longa, que chances teriam pobres aspirantes a intérpretes como Hayden Christensen e Jessica Alba?
December 06, 2007
Awake feels like an Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode unfolding in slow motion, with each new revelation coming a reel or two after viewers have guessed it.

Imagine it's a comedy and pray for the end.
