    What is singular about Inhale is the intelligent way in which plot and character keep opening up the moral landscape so as to complicate our responses to Paul's multiplying dilemmas.

    The film awkwardly mixes political, social and medical issues and ends up being less than the sum of its parts.

    Inhale is a creepy medical thriller in the tradition of "Coma" that amps up the tension and suspense by slicing up time.

  1. Very average - it strives for something more, but doesn't quite reach it. That said, still a decent film if you enjoy the genre. It has a great premise: your son is dying and won't get a transplant in time, and the countdown is on. It has good actors in the leads, and the photography is pretty nice, but it doesn't achieve the tone and gripping feel of a thriller or adventure. It seems like it wants to be a mini Traffic, but it just feels like it's always waiting to break through. Expand
