Amnesiac

It's an excellent movie to watch when you have a dinner and a movie date with your partner; for the movie doesn't really demand your continuing focus, so you can take a sip, share a bite and perhaps make out a bit and guess what? You haven't missed a thing, the movie is rolling on its own groggy pace, still at pretty much where you left off. But the joke aside, this is a fine thriller/soft horror by Polish. Great filmography, splendid staging, suggestive lighting and good acting by all. Suspense at every turn without the need of road signs, you know it is crawling in on you, Closer at every tick!! There are cross worlds of movies you feel like you're in, as in Reiner's Misery, as in Amenâbar's The Other's. Miss Bosworth's costume and mannerism is very much of Nicole Kidmans, the cool tempered eerie you-know-something-not-quite-right-but-can't-take-my- eyes-off-her beauty who makes sure the sun stays out and darkness creeps in, along with the door knockers. Later on you see Kate's trivia quipping character transform from Nicole Kidman's loving care into Katie Bates' kind of loving. The ending is quite abrupt and not to the expectation you might've dreamt up to that point but hey, still is a good flick when you're multi tasking. Keep your eyes peeled my friends..

It's a badly written, directed, and acted rip off of Stephen King's Misery. At first you think the movie may be salvageable, probably deserves more than the two, to two and a half stars it was given...until you watch it. The acting by the stories main protagonist (Kate Bosworth) is dull to say the least. It's almost as if Bosworth tried so hard, her performance goes full circle, right back to mediocre. There's a calm demeanor in the character that you as the viewer are supposed to find intriguing, but again, it's far too over done to be anything short of annoying. She is a walking encyclopedia of Jeapordy answers. Which, is supposed to add to the mystery of the character and the plot, but in the end falls flat, because the plot fails to explain why. The general pace is so slow, the plot is so needlessly drawn out, that it begins to feel like more of a nuisance to sit through to the finish, rather than a thrill-ride.

There is a slight twist at the end of the movie, but it's not enough to carry the film above the two star rating.

I have nothing against Kate Bosworth, personally. But, if she ever decides to do another role like this, she needs desperately to seek acting lessons from Kathy Bates.

Dear IMDb user. Please do yourself a huge favor and do not watch this movie. It is 2 hours of your life you will never get back. It is the worst movie in the history of movies. Terrible acting, horrible content and horrifically slow. I usually do not write movie reviews but this movie was just so awful I just had to share my experience and vent. If you enjoy being annoyed by bad acting and an extremely slow moving film, then this is the movie for you. You will enjoy the many identical and frustrating scenes in this movie, and what drove myself insane might very well be of extreme entertainment to you. You have been warned.

I'd have to say that most reviews here are spot on (as ever) apart from the obvious 'shill' (who even kindly reminds us it's on Amazon!) The film struggles throughout. Struggles for pace, coherence, atmosphere and most of all any scrape of originality. Even Nicole Kidman clone Kate Bosworth again shows she can't act for toffee as do the rest of the cast with alarming consistency. The film yearns to be Misery or any decent film of the Psycho Stalker genre but falls so far short it is funny. Bosworth's inaudible mutterings attempt to give a semblance of coherence to the dreadfully thin plot, the only convincing performance was the one from the cat who, in fairness delivered his 'miaows' with sublime skill and is the highlight of this dreary, poorly produced mumblefest.

I've set up an account just to rate this outrageously dull movie. Trust me do not waste your time. How it actually got made is beyond me. Really do not even waste your time. The 'twist' at the end is just as boring as the rest of the movie. I'm tempted to write to sky and ask for a refund. Ridiculous acting Ridiculous plot A complete waste of money I should have taken note of the other reviews and not even bothered with this movie............................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .
