 not as good as i've expected. it's not much of a
thriller nor is it a comedy. the supposedly twisted ending hasn't really
wowed me as i knew what's going on all along once the shrink came
on screen.
the only thing worth my applause is nicholas
cage. (he's the
reason i watched this movie in the first place anyways. his co-stars, sam
rockwell & alison lohman, are good too, but a lot less brilliant
as compared to him.)
his obsessive-compulsive character is amusing yet a bit
sardonic. he always
has a way to make so-so movie worth watching, just like his
appearance in "adaptation". this is what i call good acting.
well,
don't watch this movie if you're looking for a thriller or the
sort of movie that keeps you guessing. it has a theme to it though. there's always something
in life (different for different people) that you can't live
without, even if you don't realize it at the very moment. you'll regret having
forfeited it and will give everything to earn it again if you got
the chance.
