Very good review and I pretty much agree with your take on the movie. However, I actually thought that the final conversation with Paul Giamatti’s character was the only part of the movie worth watching. Giamatti’s performance was the only thing in the movie that actually intrigued me. I had never heard of this movie until a coworker at DISH recommended it to me. I saw that I could get it through my Blockbuster @Home account from DISH, and so I decided to rent it. I figured that even if I didn’t like it I could just exchange it in the store for another movie, so I had nothing to lose. I actually lost over an hour of my time and quite a bit of respect for Cronenberg, so I can’t recommend it.
