Leslie Felperin The Hollywood Reporter The subject is relevant and important enough, especially these days, to make this useful, informative viewing. Jun 10, 2020 Full Review Courtney Howard Variety The filmmakers' careful construction of their cinematic plea ought to generate empathy from the medical community, funding from bureaucrats and more trained professionals in the field to help combat this epidemic. Jun 6, 2020 Full Review Kate Erbland indieWire The change is incremental, but it's real, and after seeing just how many people have been affected by the tragedy of suicide, "Wake Up" provides a strong reason to be roused.
