    Anthony Hopkins is great. That is the only thing about the film that is great.

    While it seems the intent of the movie is to take the viewer on a journey to illustrate struggles of mental illness, it took odd twists and turns that didn't benefit the plot. Acting of certain characters seemed forced. I wouldn't see it again.

    Painfully slow and the story got a stupid "turning point".

    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.

    I had no idea it's so bad

    I don't usually rate movies this low but this is awful. Bad acting, the script is soooo flame, I think they wanted to be interesting and intellectual but the failed. I have 2 stars only for Anthony Hopkins. I am really sorry for him that he had to go through this.

    I'm in a catatonic coma

    WTF was this? Did the director, Hopkins wife, find this script in Woody Allen's recycle bin? Did Sir Anthony need a paycheck? The only thing that would make this worse is if Nick Cage made an appearance.

    Shallow and disappointing

    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 .....
