Wake will keep you awake - amazingly complex, intriguing, must-see movie, 17 March 2005
9/10
Author: Nicole Malthers from Toronto, ON

Wake is a must-see movie for anyone who loves a good character driven movie, with a twisted ending, and of course, any Gale Harold fan ---- but there's many more fine performances here too! The movie is beautifully shot, with a dark, foreboding atmosphere and the all the actors are amazing in their roles. It reminded me of Mystic River or Fight Club in it's tone, and the troubled story. It's about four brothers who have reunited for a night at their family home - it's obvious they have experience trauma in their early lives and they eventually end up drinking and fighting while we are given clues to what is really going on and their dark history together as a family--- don't want to give too much else away. Blake Gibbons gives a commanding performance, and Gale Harold truly shines --- everything is so real, you really feel the troubled nature of these brothers. With great sound and background, as well as a story that will keep your mind interested, you will definitely love this movie. A great alternative to the mindless schtick of big-budget special effects movie - this one has realism, intrigue, and great acting, especially by Gale.
