I would recommend seeing this movie for one reason only: it is head and shoulders above the majority of garbage that infests our cineplexes and video rental outlets.
Robin Williams plays one of the most intelligent mentally retarded men I have ever witnessed. His prosthetic makeup did not serve him well.
David Duchovony was so laid back that I kept waiting for him to fall asleep.
To wit, they both got on my nerves but to be fair, their performances, along with the rest of the cast, were very good.
Their were some things that you could see coming, and it was bits and pieces of "old hat. " Still, I respect the producers for their guts doing a movie that was rather different in many aspects.
My pickiness aside, this is very good and worth the time and money to see.
