The Minute You Wake Up Dead is a very basic murder thriller that wouldn't be out of place on the Lifestyle channel. You get the vibe from the acting and the filming locations. Even Morgan Freeman looks like he's been dragged out of bed to play his role.
The murder isn't that mysterious and you should work it out before topping your glass up for your second drink. If I were to compare The Minute You Wake Up Dead to a ride at the fairground it would be one of those wooden toys on a spring that you have move back and forth to get going, something Freeman wouldn't currently be able to do.
As we get towards the end of what has been a long drawn out affair it does speed up slightly but only enough to get you excited about it soon finishing so you can check the weather report.
The Minute You Wake Up Dead isn't great and you'll thank me some day for letting you know. If you do decide to watch it have your phone handy as you will beg for the interruptions.
