Author: mimacdon4 from FT. Lauderdale, FL

This movie is an enigma and one that leaves what is real to the eye of the beholder. It leaves room for multiple interpretations.

Ben (Colin Firth) is a man who wakes up in the hospital after a car crash to find that the rest of London is reeling from the death of a pop star.

He tries to get his life back in order and re-locates to a grim building(being renovated) that used to be an old hospital, complete with old morgue headquartered in the basement.

It recalls Polanski's 'The Tenant' or 'Repulsion' in its examination of psychological terror.

Colin Firth turns in a believable performance as a man losing his grip on reality. If you are a fan of this type of film, I recommend it. You'll end up watching it more than once and drawing more than one conclusion about the outcome.
