Product Description

Psychological thriller starring Colin Firth as Ben, a man who wakes from a coma to discover that his wife Elisa (Naomie Harris) has been killed in car accident. When he comes out of hospital a few weeks later, he tries to rebuild his life, reuniting with old friend Tommy (Tommy Flanagan) and making friends with his pretty young neighbour Charlotte (Mena Suvari), who takes him to visit a psychic (Brenda Fricker) to try to help him get over his grief and pain. But Ben is continually haunted by images from the past - and as his paranoia builds, his grip on reality becomes increasingly tenuous...

1.0 out of 5 stars Unpleasant 25 Sep 2009
By Kona TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
Ben (Colin Firth) was in a bad car accident that killed his wife. As the story opens he's in the hospital, coming out of a coma. He goes back to his creepy apartment building where he is the only resident. He cannot come to terms with his wife's death and hallucinates about her constantly. To make things worse, he finds himself the prime suspect in the brutal murder of a famous rock singer.

Yikes. This is a bad movie. It attempts to be an art film delving into the mind of a mentally ill man, but falls completely flat and is just one long, confusing, and very unpleasant movie. We never know if what we are seeing is real or imagined; it's too hard to follow and totally repellent. Firth does the best he can with the terrible script but I didn't like or care about his character at all.

If you're afraid of creepy crawly creatures, this is not the movie for you; the same goes if you're looking for Firth to be a debonair heartthrob. Not recommended.

By Trevor Willsmer HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
Marc Evans' Trauma is not to be confused with Dario Argento's Trauma, although it does seem eager to be confused with Jacob's Ladder, borrowing a few clumsily executed visual effects and the central "Which reality is reality?" conundrum to remarkably little effect. Despite a surprisingly good turn from Colin Firth as a stalker-cum-murder-suspect who may or may not have killed a pop star, whose wife may or may not have died in the accident that left him in a coma and whose landlady-cum-romantic interest Mina Suvari may or may not be a figment of his imagination, it's a thin and uninvolving story that fails to be bolstered by the visual techniques that keep you at arms length from the characters without ever being particularly successful in their own right.

There is a brief section halfway through where the picture threatens briefly to become interesting, but it all too quickly passes. Not unwatchable, just flat as a mill pond. Still, it does set new cinematic ground in giving all the ants in the film individual screen credits.

5.0 out of 5 stars Here's a film to watch more than once 15 Mar 2005
Format:DVD
You'll need to, there's so much happening, so much to piece together or maybe to re-arrange - you decide. The film is disturbing, gripping, scary and sad - the music is haunting and beautiful. How does a writer as young as this come up with such dark images and ideas. I've watched it several times now and am still trying to make it out. Colin Firth in the lead role is superb - he is perfectly cast and it's refreshing to see him playing a part which has so much more depth to it than others he has played recently - he draws us into his world and we end up almost as confused as he is. Mena Suvari as Charlotte is wonderful. In the few scenes when they do come together the chemistry between them works so well, it is so beautiful and sensual. She is so trusting, innocent and pure - he is lonely and vulnerable, yet manipulative too and very sexy. He can try to cure my fear of spiders anytime, just as long as he doesn't get too carried away!

3.0 out of 5 stars One of Colin Firth's best roles
Although there are some scary scenes it is quite far from being a horror film, I'd say it's closer to a psychological drama. Read more
