Review of Amnesiac

Amnesiac is a bland psychological mystery thriller about a man who has met with an accident and unable to recollect the incidents. He then began suspecting that the lady claiming his wife may not be his real wife, triggering a series of twisted unfoldings. Although well acted, the movie feels strangely namby-pamby and suffers largely from its direction. The feature-length exceeds its short storyline. Admittedly, the story is the real gain from this mangled picture. It tries too hard to play with your predictive mind and twists them just before you think you got it. But there seems to be a clear lack of effort somewhere. Such crisp stories clamor for a much better presentation. If the director is clear about the genre(s) of the movie, it becomes a much easier task to provide the right amount of treatment to the movie, which, in this case, does not happen, stupefying expectations.
