Review:
A very different role for Robin Williams, and he does a fantastic job.

I do like this movie, it is very strange, and odd, and does a great job of showing the maddness of the main character, Sy.

I don't think the movie is perfect, because I always think things can be darker than they are, but it gets pretty close.

I definately recommend the movie, especially even those that aren't fans of Williams.
