As medical thrillers go, this one wasn’t too bad. A psychiatrist (Jude Law) “consulting” for a pharmaceutical company prescribes a new antidepressant for a suicidal patient (Rooney Mara) with disastrous results. As the plot slowly thickens into a “wrong man” mystery, it picks up the unfortunate side effect of “you could have backed out of this at any time.” Despite some fairly obvious holes in the plot, the script is reasonably good and the execution well-crafted. Mildly amusing
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
