Wake Up

It was okay, but it lacked with the acting. The female actress Diana (Francesca Eastwood), and Frank (Malik Yoba), the detective, were both very cheesy actors. The premise itself is good, and does catch you off guard, but it is also like a 1990's thriller movie. It reminds me of the 1993 film Striking Distance. It was almost too similarly portrayed to movies that have already been made and nothing really set it apart other than the main actor having amnesia.

I'm not even 1/2 way in but am distracted by the ever changing facial stitches he has. My god where was editing, makeup, actor, PHOTOS?

The whole "amnesiac finding himself accused of murder and setting off his own personal investigation to prove his innocence" has been done before, but I was willing to sit through it again. However, these filmmakers weren't able to put enough freshness or common sense into this retelling. As other IMDb commenters have stated here, the plot in this retelling has a number of holes. Some things are not properly explained, and other things simply don't make sense if you know how professional police investigators (or even ordinary people) act. But there is a bigger problem with the movie, and that is how slow and dull its story unfolds. There is almost no feeling of struggle or tension in the entire 92 minutes, and as a result the story is so low key that it's hard to give a hoot about the mystery or any of the characters. The problems with the movie may have in part come from the fact that the credits state that two people directed the movie; conflicts in the director's chair may have taken attention away from the fact that the screenplay and its atmosphere needed a lot more care.

I mean why put a full face bandage on a couple cheek scars...

Simple movie, just don't go to cinema to watch, not that great..
