Not enough to send you to sleep


Before I Go to Sleep (2014)

Directed by Rowan Joffe this film based on the novel of the same name stars Nicole Kidman, Colin Firth and Mark Stong. A woman with anterograde amnesia is secretly treated by a doctor while unsure if she can trust her husband who cares for her.

No great shakes as a thriller this is a decent but not overly remarkable genre piece. There are a few too many coincidences required for the plot to play out as it does for my taste although the script does hold together for the most part. Nicole Kidman is decent in the lead role, otherwise the film is pretty average.

3/5
