Anthony Hopkins is the only great experience actor in this painfully slow made for TV movie. Main characters Elyse portrayal of a woman struggling with mental illness was horrible. She wasn't believable. It seems she Elyse just memorized her lines and at times delivers them in a repetitve fashion. Not worth watching! I can't believe such an excellent actor like Anthony Hopkins agreed to be in this film. Not sure what the BK and WH was supposed to portray but even when it switched to color the movie was still a failure. Hopefully Hopkins did this movie to donate his proceeds to Charity. I can't imagine what would have made this movie at least a 5.
I knew while watching this that my husband would hate it and some of my friends too but I enjoyed the journey of the film. I was intrigued as to where we were going and what was really happening and what was not. Fantasy? Reality? Hallucinations? Yes. All of the above but I enjoyed the scenarios nonetheless. All of the actors were terrific especially Anthony Hopkins. He was superb as always. Some will not like this movie but the ones who do are in for a wonderful escape from reality if only for awhile.
This is the worst acting I have ever experienced. Except for Anthony Hopkins, the entire cast is horrible.
The storyline is just stupid and unbelievable.
Please do not watch this movie:P
Not to put spoilers I keep it a little vague. There are some information given close to the end of the movie that are a: Oh, that's why.
To withhold this information to the end makes the movie go totally down the drain. It was totally out of scope while it should have been the topic all along. I still gave it a 6, because I rounded up for good acting in some parts.
I think without Antony Hopkins in it, I would have given up on the movie in the beginning. Lisa Pepper did some good acting and I liked the performance of Tara Arroyave too. Unfortunately acting cannot really make a story with the wrong turns a good movie.
We watched this movie only because of Anthony Hopkins, but ended up with a shallow, cheap and ordinary one. It could have been a great movie if there would be more phycological background, more analysis, more .....
