It's kinda disappointing. I was hoping for more.

There was no background to the problem. Lacking good cinematography. Although, it has an interesting story that nobody could sleep.

Average movie, poor ending.

Movie couldn't hold my interest much but I finished it hoping for a good climax, but it ended in disappointment.

Awake will make you fall asleep

"Awake" is pure chaos..There was not a single scene that caught my attention. Watch something else instead.

Lots of potential that ended up in mediocrity...

Sure, "Awake" was watchable, but the movie was just one of those movie that you watch once, because it is adequately entertaining, but then you forget about the movie and never return to it again.

And that is because there were just way too many things in the movie that made so little sense. I especially found it ludicrous that society would break out in anarchy after such a short time. Sure, I get that staying awake for prolonged periods of time starts to affect the brain, but come on, for people to start looting, killing each other and such, nah, that was just a bit too far fetched.

The storyline in "Awake" definitely had some interesting enough aspects. But ultimately, then writers Joseph Raso, Mark Raso and Gregory Poirier just managed to come up with a mediocre storyline.

I will say that the acting performances put on in "Awake" were fair, and while I am not overly familiar with actress Gina Rodriguez, she actually carried the movie quite well with her performance.

I had expected a bit more from director Mark Raso with this 2021 movie. Sure, it made for an adequate enough watch, but it just wasn't a wow-moment.

My rating of "Awake" lands on a bland five out of ten stars.

Really Enjoyed It

This was a good story and was definitely worth my time. I love apocalyptic, sci-fi stories, so I watched this as soon as it came out. I was on the edge of my seat through most of it. It's true that there's a weird religious part in the film, but it was brief and insignificant. Seriously, it's not worth mentioning. The person who complained about it was probably hoping for another Hollywood flash and bang film. I also enjoyed the film because I'm a mother and could relate to how the main character protected her children.

I was disappointed that the movie was kind of short, and there could have been more character development for some of the actors. The kids in the film were great, and so was the leading lady. If you're expecting an earth-shaking movie, then this is probably not for you. If you're hoping to just catch a good movie, then I suggest you give this a try.

Anecdotes
In the library, one sees a small white sticker with a red maple leaf, on the spines of some books. These stickers indicate that the books are written by Canadian authors. This was filmed in a branch of the Toronto Public Library.

The incident causes numerous accidents and hospital admissions surge, yet it takes a young girl to catch on that the 'cure' is very short term cardiac arrest and resuscitation. This wouldn't have gone unnoticed in hospitals or elder care homes.

Jill: Fixing this car is going to be so hard. Oh, man. Okay. But there are books on that, okay? You hear?
Dodge: [Smiles] Burn the books, man. Burn 'em all. Don't need those anymore.
Jill: [Matilda looks behind her] Ah, eyes! Can you maybe just not- Focus on the road, please. Not talk to her so she can concentrate, please.
Dodge: [Looks to Noah] Enough people said that the Earth was flat, so the Earth was flat. Then, they said the Earth was round... so the Earth was round.
Noah: The Earth is round.
Dodge: Prove it.
Noah: Science proves it.
Dodge: [laughs] Science? And who understands the science, huh?
Jill: [Matilda looks back at Dodge] Eyes on the road, please. Always.
Dodge: Enough people talk about something, right? Then they put it in the books, and then the book becomes fact. Then it's settled. Then no one understands it anymore, no one even talks about it anymore. Fuck, this is why we gotta burn the books man.
Matilda: [Gripping the steering wheel] He said the F-word.
Jill: I know. Please shut up.
[Dodge whispers an apology]
Jill: She's a kid.
Dodge: Okay.
[pause]
Dodge: You know, my grandmama, you know what she used to tell me? That all the world's problems could disappear in one generation if every kid grew up forgetting all the shit they were taught, the shit that doesn't make sense, but you're taught it enough times you believe it. Then we could actually live in a world where no one is starving... and everyone's equal.
