Movie Story

A man awakens after four days in a coma after a car accident to find that he has lost his wife, his identity, and his life: somebody else has taken his identity, and he struggles to get his life back.

Ahmed Al Kiremli Opinion

The movie was interesting, motivating you to know more about what’s going to happen next. It’s kind of another version of Liam Neeson’s movie Taken, but Taken was much better. Neeson’s performance was OK but not very convincing. The story in general was interesting but could have been done better. It was difficult to predict what was going to happen next, and the end was totally unexpected. It was a good mystery movie and worth watching.
Diane Kruger in the role of Gina did a very good job in terms of acting, but some things were not realistic about her super-woman character. She initially cared mainly about money but suddenly started caring about someone she didn’t know and who had caused her so much trouble. The movie had some unrealistic plot points. It’s fine that the main character was in a coma and lost some of his memory, but it’s not realistic that the character forgot how to fight and suddenly remembered how to do that at the end of the movie.
