Title: A Truly Aweful Film
Review: This film has it all! An absolutely preposterous plot, some really bad acting (from Kenneth Branagh of all people!), and regrettable casting choices (e.g., Robin Williams as a disgraced ex-psychiatrist forced to work as a grocery store shelf stocker and Wayne Knight--Newman on Seinfeld--who [sorry Wayne!] will always be Newman and therefore should not be cast in any serious movie).Among its other sins, at times this "thriller" seems to think it's a comedy. If you're a fan of Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson's other fine works, you'll especially want to skip this one.It's a real shame--after wasting $8-$10 on this movie, you'll naturally want to see it to its conclusion despite all the warning signs that it's not going to get any better. At that point not you've not only wasted $8-$10, but also nearly 2 hours of your life. I'm a movie fan and a collector, but this one's going out with the next garbage pick-up.
Is the review positive or negative?
