MOVIE REVIEW : Before I Go To Sleep

Hello everybody!

This week I had watched a few psycho movies but I think this one is quite interesting to be written as my movie review >.<

BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP

Looking at the title had made me assume of many things about this movie. At first, I think it is a horror movie but it turned out to be a mystery thriller film that had left me wondering about how if this kind of situation would eventually happen for real in my life. 

Starring Nicole Kidman as Christine Lucas who is suffering a disease that causes her to lose her memories on her previous days up until his early twenties. She stays in a house with man named Ben, who is said to be her husband. Christine receives treatment from Dr. Nash, a neurologist at a local hospital who gives her a camera to record her thoughts and progress each day, and calls her every morning to remind her to watch the video in the camera. Dr. Nash instructs Christine to keep the camera hidden from Ben and reveals that her memory loss occurred after she was attacked and left for dead near an airport hotel. They surmise that Ben tells Christine it was a car accident to avoid upsetting her. The truth keeps revealing when Christine realizes that she actually has a son named Adam but Ben says he is dead. The zenith is when Christine knows that the person that she calls Ben all this time is not the real Ben - not the real husband of her. 

I like this movie because of its plot twists. I still remember when Christine suddenly remembers the name of the person that has something to do with what she has gone through all this time. MIKE - that name. At first time, I do think that Dr. Nash is the real 'Mike', however in the end, Mike is actually the person that stays with her in the house. He acts as Ben in order to stay with Christine. During her twenties, Christine had an affair with Mike and she ended up being abused and hit by Mike as she refused to tell the truth to his husband, Ben. Since that time, Christine suffered the memory loss. Ben had to leave her for Adam`s sake. Eventually, Adam is actually alive. In the end of this movie, Mike had been caught and Christine was warded when Ben and Adam came to visit her. 

I like this kind of movie - thriller and mystery. For that, I can rate Before I Go To Sleep with 4 out of 5 stars!! Looking forward to see more movies like this soon :')
