Great Film overall

Absolutely Brilliant!

A different way of telling a story

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

I thought the movie started strong. Carys meets Tyler at his fiancé's funeral. It is completely absurd and offensive how he carries himself. How on Earth could you be flirting with a girl you met at your fiancé's funeral? Do yourself a favor and don't watch this movie. It's not endearing to fall in love with a woman you meet at your beloved's funeral it's appalling. I didn't even bother to continue watching this film as soon as the scene began with Carys and Tyler in a restaurant flirting with each other. I couldn't bear a second more of such a frivolous display of love. This movie insults the very nature of human emotion and the character Tyler seems unmoved by his fiancé's tragic death. However if you have no concept of love and the plot of this movie does not offend your ideals of what romance should be then go ahead and watch this piece of trash.

I adored this movie, it's just that if the ending's not perfect, then the whole movie reflects on that. Don't get me wrong though the ending was not bad just don't expect too much. The movie was excellent. I just wish the ending was a little different or longer. Haha great movie though. I really wish the movie was longer, I wanna see more Ian ha-ha. I am really hoping he stars as Christian Grey in 50 shades of Grey. He did a fantastic job. Unfortunately though he didn't come in a lot of movies. He plays Damon in the vampire diaries but I like seeing him play a simple role like this. The movie was hilarious by the way ha-ha the girl did a fantastic job!

I was fortunate to see this film at the San Jose Film Festival last year when I visited my brother and his family. Our group of eight ranged in ages from ten to two senior citizens. To say the least, there was a fair amount of debate, but we decided we were intrigued with the title "Wake" and decided to see it. It was such a delightful movie! We all enjoyed it. The story line was very different and clever (always refreshing!). We were not familiar with Bijou Phillips before this movie, but she was perfectly cast as the heroine or protagonist. I'm going to watch for more of her movies in the future. We especially liked the scene where she had to play dead for the nephews visiting the morgue; the entire theater was laughing so loudly! I intend to buy the DVD soon for my collection.

I loved this movie - great chemistry between actors - go Bijou - loved her! The writing is top notch and has a couple plot twists you don't see coming, which is rare these days. Great Indie movie! I loved the best friend of Bijou who I thought was extremely funny! It's fun to see Danny Masterson act with Bijou, who I just read were engaged! The music is also wonderful, I totally want the soundtrack! It's fun to see an Indie movie with heart and soul instead of these big guns, big stars Blockbuster movies. I really loved this experience - I had a glass of nice wine and and just sat back and relaxed this great movie! A++ I wish more small Indie movies like this would come out!
