What happens when a person decides that life is merely a state of mind?

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Although everyone involved is likable, especially Zellweger, the elements don't mesh.
– John Anderson,

fresh:
LaBute didn't write Nurse Betty, but his fierce comic touch is, luckily, all over this movie.

– Geoff Andrew,
