Leave your thoughts about Awakened.
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThis low-rent, convoluted tale about a young woman returning home to solve the mystery of her mother’s violent death is amateurish to the extreme. |
| Village VoiceSam WeisbergThis needlessly incoherent thriller treats its convoluted nonsense with grave seriousness. It's mawkish, maudlin, and tongue-tied — countless scenes end with characters excusing themselves to go to bed, and you may want to join them. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenIf the ostensible thriller contained a single believable moment, let alone an ounce of suspense, its nonsensical final twist might be grounds for concern. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisIt’s a poorly acted grab bag of shopworn ideas and hyperbolic behaviors that not even Ryan Murphy could translate into entertainment. |
| User ReviewMichael CWow, all I said during the film was wow. To take the supernatural thriller from this angle I thought was truly significant. You see so much garbage of this genre being produced today using jump scares, but this film here brings a certain realism to the thriller genre. You really believe the characters and truly begin to believe in the supernatural. I didn't before this film. Beautifully, acted, shot, and directed. Definitely worth a viewing |
| User ReviewSamantha LI loved the film itself, I loved the acting, and just the story itself. But what I was left with was this empowering experience. I was left with this hope and empowerment. As a woman, I was really touched by the story and I found it so refreshing to finally have a powerful female lead. Sure it happens in the films of today, but Julianne Michelle's character Samantha was just such an inspiration to me. Her strength really came across beautifully. |
| User ReviewJayne EThis film was a serious knockout. I was not expecting its twists and turns, and the suspense was seriously turnt all the way up. A crazy experience, but also, the protagonist was so relatable I couldnt help but be swept up completely in the story. I loved every minute. Somtimes, some of the scares were a little too much for me, but the story itself was enough to carry me through |
| User ReviewDebra JReally powerful movie. A film that takes its time with its themes and messages. Has a great even pace that just makes it really worth viewing. Suspenseful and scary at times, but really just a fun experience. |
| User ReviewJames FI was really moved by this film. A great experience. Very disturbing and dark and mysterious at times. Great cast, great performances, and Im defintely seeing it twice. A really great movie. Also great to see a movie like this with a female lead |
| User ReviewF BThis movie is refreshing. We do not see enough female lead movies. This is a good touching film with many twists and surprises. There were no cheap grabs for attention with the F word everywhere and every minute as is the case with so many pictures today. This is a story and character driven film. My girlfriend and 8 year old daughter enjoyed this movie. We all got a lot out of it. |
