Dudes gonna shit himself when 9/11 happens
Mel Gibson is an MK Ultra victim, Julia Roberts is a lawyer for the Justice Department who is the Jodie Foster to his John Hinkley, Patrick Stewart channels Lawrence Oliver in Marathon Man as a CIA shrink who turns angry loners into throw away button men for the deep state. Contains one of the most disturbing and frightening Mel Gibson being-tortured-scenes out of the many, many movies where he is tortured on screen. Lots of fun conspiracy jewels in this one such as: Oliver Stone is disinfo agent for the Bush family, Hinkley was also an ULTRA op but isn't known by the traditional "first, middle and last" designation of assassins because he only wounded The Gipper, and finally ULTRA ops are programmed with a need to buy The Catcher in the Rye as a way to track them after their released back into the wild after LSD mind control protocols. It missed a beat by copping out at the very end by revealing that Mel actually didn't assassinate Julia Roberts' father but was friends with him.Like Green Room, Patrick Stewart is truly great in a role that lets him be pure evil.RIP to Richard Donner, one of the greats.
Great performances by Roberts, Stewart, and especially Mel Gibson. He played that paranoid conspiracy theorist’s weirdo antics to a T. It’s a psychological thriller with a comedy undertone, and the comedy is pretty underrated. The whole bit where Alice sees Jerry’s apartment for the first time was pretty hilarious. The movie has its ups and downs, and the tonal shift was something. It could’ve been way better if it had been edited tighter. It reminded me a lot of Fincher’s The Game.
A taxi driver obsessed with government plots and secret societies becomes a target when one of his bizarre claims unexpectedly turns out to be true.
