Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Regrettably, an overblown finale and redundant trick ending undercut the mild subversiveness of what's gone before.

[Hackford] seems stuck in a private limbo, unable to decide whether he's making a special-effects flick or a pop-philosophical tract.

The movie's greatest strength is that it becomes more complex and rewarding as it goes along.

rotten:
Although it's nice for a film to be ambitious, there is such a thing as overreaching.

rotten:
The movie never fully engaged me; my mind raced ahead of the plot, and the John Grisham stuff clashed with the Exorcist stuff.
