Well, if you've seen "Awakenings" or read "Flowers for Algernon" there's not much point in seeing this film, with one exception. Val Kilmer greatly irritates me for some reason. However, it is hard to discount his talent. He has made some of his previous roles, such as Jim Morrison, and Iceman, his own. He is good here, too, but still irritating. Nathan Lane, in a small part, was much less irritating than usual. Steven Weber, in another small role was just as irritating as always. Kelly McGillis is either not aging well, or deliberately played this one frumpy. That's probably the case as frumpy fits the character perfectly. And, Mira Sorvino. Well. She looked so beautiful with her sad smile against the winter backdrop. Her acting was good, too, I never thought of her as out of character throughout the film. This is worth seeing if you are a fan of Sorvino, or Kilmer. Otherwise, skip it.
