Trauma (DVD, 2005)

I am a Colin Firth fanatic and just enjoy his movies. This movie was no exception. He continues to impress us with the range of characters he can convincingly portray. I won't divulge too much since I think that that's one of the major selling points of this particular movie..all is revealed with time. Suffice it to say, Colin's definitely not Darcy here!

Were Colin Firth to star in "The Life Story of Mickey Mouse," in the title role, I'd buy it. I am a Colin Firth fan, as is my husband.
The acting talents of Mr. Firth are excellent. However, this was not his shining hour, due to the bizarre plot of this film, which was, for the most part, disturbing, and in general, confusing. It was without explanation, as far as Ben's actions, toward the ending, nor offered any closure, at the end of the movie. It just leaves you hanging.
It did, however, convey a most valuable lesson, & that is, to always be wary, and on-your-guard, with persons you've only just met...most especially those who are grieving, or who are suffering memory loss, or who appear to be mentally or emotionally troubled, in any manner of speaking. Leave their recovery, their comforting, to the professionals, and grant them a lot of space, and privacy.
The red flags were blatantly flapping in hurricane force winds, the ear-splitting warning sirens were going off at every turn, by most every action displayed by Ben. But they went totally unheeded, by the too-free-with-herself Charlotte.

Colin Firth did a great job acting. I didn't care for the movie itself and wouldn't have bought it had I known it was going to be so gory. I bought it because I like Colin Firth as an actor. This movie was out of character for him, however, it showed how versatile he can be.

I bought this movie, because its different from the other movies Colin Firth has made in the past. I like that he has a "dark" side to want to do movies like this and hope he does more in the future. I really enjoy watching movies that leave you guessing - make you watch it again to see what you have missed the first and even the second time. Very versatile actor Colin Firth is. This is one of my favorite movies he has made. I do recommend this one to others that like thrillers.
