Movie Review: Before I Wake (PG13)
Canadian child star Jacob Tremblay has already proven acting chops beyond his years in Oscar-nominated drama Room.
And it seems there is no role too big for the nine-year-old who plays an orphan named Cody with a unique inborn gift that allows his dreams and worst nightmares to come true in this dark, heavy supernatural thriller.
It is the power of his imagination that sees him battling dark demons and places his latest adoptive parents (Kate Bosworth and Thomas Jane) in peril.
Tremblay might be in the company of more experienced actors but he is the show-stealer, rising to the challenge of playing an innocent yet multi-faceted, character as if he's a seasoned star.
Rating 4/5
