Our Review
Before I Go to Sleep is a masterful blend of suspense and psychological intrigue. Nicole Kidman delivers a compelling performance as Christine, bringing a palpable sense of vulnerability and determination to her role. The plot, while familiar in its amnesiac premise, is executed with enough twists and turns to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Colin Firth and Mark Strong support the narrative with strong performances. The film’s pacing is excellent, maintaining tension throughout, and it cleverly uses its premise to explore themes of trust, identity, and the fragility of memory.
