The first thing I have to say about this movie is IT IS SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!! Seriously, it is slower than snail mail during a snow storm! (Or any other type of weather, because we all KNOW the "Postal Creed" is B.S.!) As if the very slowness of it isn't bad enough, they really, I MEAN REALLY tried to toss in WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too many elements, many of which aren't explained, it's just kind of supposed that you'll figure them out on your own.

This of course leaves us with a very rushed ending, because they're trying to wrap everything up, so 10 years worth of details are condensed down to less than 10 minutes!! (I know, sometimes when I am working I WISH I had a time-warp like this!)

The movie can be summed up pretty simply, the shrink himself loses it and has to get his brain back and this, of course, is another topic that's been done in the movies 2 million times already........perhaps that's why they tried to toss in so much other stuff?? One can only hope they had some rational reason for it, however, as a writer myself, I'd have left some stuff for a future script!!!

So, basically, the entire movie is what caused me to rate it only a 4.5 and I am thinking that's pretty generous!

BEST MOVIE LINE: Jack: "This guy sees more puss than a litterbox!"

Oh and you'll want to keep your eye out for the amazing disappearing and reappearing script as well as for when the writer tosses his closed laptop on the floor and the battery flies out........only to pick it up 2 seconds later, it's open and on and the battery is NOWHERE TO BE SEEN! WOW! Now THAT'S movie magic!!
