Sleepwalker

Acting was great, considering the script and story was absolute bobbins. I didn't get it at all, I followed it all the way through but didn't get the point of the story. None of it made sense.

If you don't watch a lot of movies, you might find this one to be entertaining. If you have watched a lot, then you'll notice how unimaginative this movie truly was. I don't have particularly high standards for all movies. But if you're going to be a slow burn, at least have a good ending. The ending was a letdown. Truly a waste of time.

I am a horror novelist, so I am undoubtably a fan of cryptic symbolism and leaving things up to the viewers imagination. However, this film had me wondering if I was too dumb to understand it, or too smart to enjoy it. I don't know if I understood it. Maybe I am simply too stupid to grasp the artistic vision. Or maybe it was just a really bad movie.

I imagine the writers were fighting over what ending they wanted to pick. They give what seems to be the conclusion 4 times before the story finds away to pick back up. Unfortunately, the actual conclusion is an elementary writing cliche. I have no idea how they managed to get away with that ending in this day in age. I had to google the Wikipedia article to make sure I had understood it correctly. I am still not sure if I do. The audience is left with so many loose ends and questions. It seems most scenes happened just for the sake of happening. Half of the movie has no real plot relevance Also, it was really, really unnecessary for the directors to have the main character in lingerie for half of the movie. Who sleeps in that??? It's hard to focus on whatever message they're trying to convey when the main actor is dripping wet in nothing but a white, lace underwear set.

Acting was amazing. I think the choking scenes were beautifully filmed. Great consume design. Tons of symbolism that is easily missed if you glance away from the screen for a second too long. The transitions and cinematography were great. It has looks of a billion-dollar-budget movie with the quirk of an indie film. I wish it had better writers. Maybe if they had stuck with the original conclusion, or tied up more loose ends, it would have been a 10/10. It had the makings of a cult classic. It failed miserably in the ending.

I watched this, and for the most part enjoyed it, but what on Earth was it about, what was going on? I concentrated from start to finish, but simply could not follow it, I am all for complexity in films, ambiguity, but this just made absolutely no sense, events were happening just for the sake of it.

The ending sucked, totally lazy writing, to an unforgivable extent, very definitely a case of 'did they think they could get away with that in this day and age?'

The acting was excellent, very impressive performances, and the visuals were truly excellent.

I did like it, even if I didn't quite follow it. Mehh, 5/10

Another poster nailed it. The last screens explained it all quite tidily. Only thing I don't understand... the folks that didn't understand lol Excellent film and I'm glad I watched it.
