Chicago Sun-Times -
A surprisingly effective thriller.

The Hollywood Reporter -
Christensen delivers a low-key performance that is ultimately quite appealing, and he's well matched by the beautiful Alba. Olin brings unexpected depths to what could have been a stock role, and Terrence Howard uses his easy ability to project innate decency to excellent effect.

ReelViews -
Awake is short enough (about 85 minutes) that it doesn't wear out its welcome. It's not a good movie but it's silly and lively enough to keep most viewers from dozing off, even if that might be a more profitable use of their time.

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
With a couple of more drafts to mend the plot holes and restructure the middle act, Awake could have been saved.

Variety -
Harold's thriller does have an attention-getting plot hook, but piles on too many narrative gimmicks to maintain suspense or credibility.
