A great story with an amazing performance by Bale!

Rating: 8/10 (5 July 2020)

This movie felt like a combination of Memento and Fight Club, and I think it did a great job depicting the insanity of this man. The story follow Christian Bale's characters who suffers from constant insomnia and hasn't slept in a year and that's why he starts losing his mind. I couldn't say I was amazed, but surely this movie does a great job giving you the feeling of an insane man, some things were totally predictable with a few unpredictable details that I liked a lot. The biggest plus of this movie is Christian Bale's amazing performance, he is an actor that puts everything in his roles and this one wasn't an exception, he is depressed, he is affraid yet feared by everyone, he is exactly the representation you need for a character like this one and Mr. Bale portrayed him perfectly. Also, the tone of the movie is calm and mysterious giving the thrill a movie like that must have, so as of director's choices I think this film gets an A+. I like the whole meaning, and conclusion, I know some people didn't like the ending but understanding the whole journey I was really into that and glad that it happened that way. I don't have any major issue with the movie, it gets a little bit confusing at first but you can see the clear image in the end and it pays off. It's a very good effort, a nice story, and a movie that deserves recognition for what it tries and what it suceeds at.
