Sanity of Mind OR Insanity of Character????

Rating: 10/10 (31 January 2006)

Well every once in a while we do get a movie which makes us enjoy the fact that movies were also meant to make us think about what we need to do in situations and what might happen if we do it the wrong way. This one is in the category of a dark thriller with a very dark setup with shady characters and sanity of lead character. Well giving away any detail in this movie would be a crime but to sum up the experience of watching this movie, IT IS FANTASTIC... The story revolves around a factory worker and his shocking deterioration of physical health due to prolonged insomnia.The twist and turns are deep enough to keep you glued to your seat for 90 minutes. The acting by the characters are brilliant.Cristian Bale should have got a best achievement award for just playing the role by losing close to 60 pounds and gaining it to shoot the scene where he is still good looking(Incidentally I watched the trailer of this one during the premiere of Bantman Begins and couldn't recognize Bale)Jennifer as his call girl /girl friend is good.The rest of the characters give a good performance to make this one of the best thrillers around recent times. A Definite Treat for Movie lovers...( I gave a 10/10 cause Brad Anderson's hasn't made many movies like this before except SESSION (.. Which is an other classic...) 10/10
