The I Inside
When Simon awakens in the hospital after surviving a near-fatal accident, amnesia has erased the last two years from his memory. He learns that his brother was killed, he has married a woman he doesn't remember and he's haunted by strange visions of the woman he loved.
Critics Sentiment

Simon dies on hospital bed and time resets to beginning
The film experiences a dramatic decline from the praised first 45 minutes (scoring around 8.0) to the widely criticized final act (dropping to 3.8-4.2).
The I Inside starts as a compelling psychological thriller that reviewers consistently praise for its atmospheric mystery and intelligent storytelling. However, the film suffers a significant decline in the second half when the plot becomes over-complicated and the established rules change arbitrarily. Critics describe the ending as weak and unsatisfying, with too much left unexplained, transforming what could have been an excellent film into wasted potential.
