Add a CommentThis movie was entertaining but not one of my favorite for this year. “Not too bad---good performance”.
Samuel L. Jackson plays a schizophrenic "homeless" man who gets involved in a possible murder. We get to view the world from the mind of Jackson, which is often chaotic for the viewer. Perhaps the director wanted to drive home how difficult it is for the schizo to focus on reality. Nevertheless, this makes the movie harder to view. A little less schizo might have made the movie flow a little better. This may be the best viewpoint of the schizophrenic on film.
