A wonderful message to learn from and to bring some reality back into the world. Unfortunately, the move extended 15 minutes beyond its message.

The story wasn't bad and the movie wasn't a bad movie, but it had the makings of a great movie! I did enjoy the motive behind it, and Robert Downey Jr.'s performance was really good.

I agree that Jamie Foxx gave a great performance, but the movie really dragged. I appreciate the story it had to tell, but it was so slow-moving...I kept looking at my watch to see if the end was in ... sight. Maybe I was dozing during the good parts. Even the music from Beethoven's beautiful "Eroica" symphony couldn't save this movie for me. Full Review

I just saw a movie with Robert Downey Jr. called Wonder Boys and even though I fell asleep it was still good.
