Before I Go to Sleep (2014)
This movie kept me hyper-focused on the screen. The acting by Nicole Kidman, Colin Firth and Mark Strong was riveting. Cinematography, acting, soundtrack and directing were all well-done. Admittedly the plot is a little far fetched, but a thriller usually has elements of fantasy. SPOILER: good counter-casting on Mark Strong (as Dr. Nasch). ADDITIONAL SPOILER: right now (as of 06/02/15) IMDb' s cast listing of Coliln Firth and Adam Levy with character's names spoils the movie's big twist. The R rating is deserved due to the violence. However, it was nice watching an "adult" thriller that was not sanitized to fulfill a PG-13 rating. While the science and biology may not be 100% factual, this movie was like a good thrill ride, exciting scary and a relief that one could return to a calm reality when it was over.
