Sleepwalker

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.

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.

I have to go against the grain here and say that I absolutely loved 'Sleepwalker' although it did take me a second viewing to spot the main reveal explaining exactly what was happening.

The explanation is there clear as day and it does tie in to the rest of the story really well, but the film deliberately brings the viewer into a state of as much confusion as the main character so it is very easily overlooked.

As a huge fan of Christopher Nolans Memento, there are vague similarities at a stretch with the main similarity between the two being the level of confusion. Otherwise there isn't really a great deal in common between the two.

If you're a Memento fan, but have watched it so many times that it no longer holds that level of mystery or confusion anymore then Sleepwalker is a good candidate to confuse the hell out of you.

Thankfully, Sleepwalker ties the end up pretty well.

Well worth a watch if you're into Mindbenders.

+1 Star For Keeping me confused as to what was going on thru the first half...

+1 Star For Some Exterior Scenes Being filmed Outside my Childhood Church

-1 Star For The Ending . Was Not Impressed By the Ending at all.

Okay this movie had a lot of build up that was well done and satisfying up to the point about 20 minutes til the end where the movie needs an adequate payoff or it really doesn't fit the bill.

In my opinion it didn't fit the bill. Does that make it a horrible movie? No of course not, but it also doesn't make it great. LOL Compare to Memento??? Please. Not even in the same horse race.
