I have watched this movie several times. Each time I realize, even more, just how close each of us might come to a similar experience. I read the remark, "not reality", but I am telling you it is as real as it might get. The stroke like experience was a lightning strike into the psyche of the brain waking all of it's possibilities. We as onlookers see only a part of what the possibilities a similar experience, for ourselves, might be. Standing back, I saw another experience, those we think we know relying on their fears to disallow them to be supportive but instead primitive in their reactions. The story covers different layers of trust for all involved. I could feel the pain and the hurt and the fear.
The actors: all of the actors fit their roles well. Travolta was wonderful as were supporting actors Kyra Sedgwick and Robert Duvall. I wouldn't change any from the part they played. The setting was perfect, the story wonderful, the acting all well done. Phenomenon is a movie I will watch again, each time knowing I will feel the same respect and emotion for it as the story closes. It is well worth watching and I grade it highly as I feel it is well deserved.
