    synergy

    I saw the film yesterday and really enjoyed it.Although there were several clues which I could realize after second time watching ,I was not able to awake the Dow-Dawn case. Maybe this was my carelessness.The subconsciousness of a woman was became concrete with personalization.'Let me go out'the key sentence of the film.Let me go out from deep deep inside of your brain and we will both be free.A discrete film that forcing the limits of human conscious and brain.Anybody who have seen the 'Machinist' would realize the similarities with breaking dawn.A man that could not escape from his conscience (again a psychological and an abstract concept)meets it in an human body.And he will just be free of accepting and realizing there is no way of escape.Also I want to mention about the performances of 'breking dawn's stuffs.In spite of having not many experiences, from actors and actresses to director all exhibited separately reasonable performance that have created a synergy which would increase the quality of the movie

    Spooky and clever

    This movie is a mystery. It's not scary, it's spooky. You'll probably jump at some points and for some of it you'll be scratching your head to figure it out. It unfolds its mystery through the main character Eve and her psychotic college project at an insane asylum, Don. He needs her to search for some clues to vindicate himself from murdering his mother, and once Eve agrees to help him, she completely opens up pandora's box and unleashes some very strange things, including Malachi. I won't go into Malachi, but I thought the way that played out was complete genius. I know movie buffs won't regard this movie with the same prestige as other classics because it doesn't have anyone very famous in it (Angelina Jolie's brother was excellent, but maybe he should have asked his sister to show her face just so this movie could get some recognition) but I do think the way the Malachi ending works is something to talk about. I've recommended this to my friends, definitely worth the purchase or rental price.

    definition of rubbish

    I cant explain what a load of rubbish this film is. Like really i cant. its just that bad.

    plot=crap acting=crap budget=so low its laughable

    Jesus, its like the only good thing in this movie is the fact the main character was fairly hot.

    The only people i feel, that think this movie is good are the ones who took part in the film. I'm sure they are not the ones who funded it because there was no money put into this. (HAHAhaha to the bit where there heads get shaved)

    This movie has already wasted too much of my life so i am not going to waste anymore time writing my review for it.

    "He's Watching You!"...

    Eve (Kelly Overton) is a med student assigned to a homicidal patient in a psychiatric hospital. Her Professor has given her six weeks to get through to this patient, or she might not become a doctor.

    His name is Don Wake (James Haven), and he's in a nearly comatose, nonverbal state. Eve secretly lowers his medication dosage and he goes berserk, after giving Eve an ominous warning.

    Odd things start happening almost immediately. Eve encounters several bizarre people, and she begins seeing a shadowy figure that seems to be following her.

    BREAKING DAWN is a superior horror / psychological thriller film that kept this viewer guessing to the very end. There are signs along the way that only make sense during the finale. Watch closely and pay very close attention!

    Highly recommended...

    Highly recommended

    I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and to date, this year, it is one of my favorites. The story was excellent although the twist at the end was far too predictable and I knew what would happen far too early. Usually when this happens the film is spoiled for me (like "The Others") but even knowing the outcome I still enjoyed it right up to the end. Looking through the comments of others many people were impressed with the performance from Kelly Overton (Eve), I'm afraid I was not. Her performance seemed to be the weak part of the film to me, in contrast to the amazing performance (or characterization) by James Haven (Don Wake) ... I hope we see more of him. What a great little film, highly recommended to all!
