That was an excellent one.

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

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.

Okay, I'm gonna be completely honest here. The only reason I sat down to watch this movie is Ian. Well, that and the good reviews certain people wrote. I really liked Carys's hobby - going to funerals; I thought it was unusual, but also something no one ever thought of before (or at least it was new to me). The plot however ... I guess they needed something the movie to revolve around so they came up with the part about the ring. Terrible, terrible idea. I was ready to get over it, after all I was only 15 min in, so I decided to give this movie a chance. Next thing you know the grieving fiancé falls for his dead girl alleged friend. Really?! Also I hated Bijou's poor acting skills; Or maybe it was the bad script? I go back and forth on that. Anyways, the only good thing about this movie is Danny Masterson, he tries really hard, but is not given enough to work with.

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!
