Spoilers
While there are a few interesting things added to the mix,this movie is basically Jacob's Ladder lite. Replace the occational weird monsters with supposed dead people,a little bit of role reversing,and have it set in a big New York city rather than in Vietnam and its pretty much the same thing. The ending? EXACTLY the same type of scenario. This is why I posted the spoiler warning...I just ruined the ending without even getting into great detail.
The editing to this film has quite a few sloppy choppy moments to it as well. There are some spots where its done on purpose for effect,but other times...theres no effect at all and its just plain sloppy.
The movie is worth one viewing if not for its melancholy mood and atmosphere alone,but after that you can pretty much pretend like this movie doesn't exist...because its already been made before under the name Jacob's Ladder...and that is significantly better...
3.5/5
