Just saw this one tonight, and I have to say that this is actually the first Robin Williams movie that I've laughed at since "Mrs. Doubtfire".

Of course, with Robin Williams, Danny Devito, and Edward Norton, you'd think it'd be a laugh riot. Unfortunately, it's not. Sure parts are laugh out hilarious, but the film can't decide wether it wants to be a comedy, a drama, or a thriller, so it tries to be all three, and it just doesn't work.

But if you're looking for a decent Robin Williams movie, this is better than some of the dramatic crap he's been doing for the last 10 years.

It was good, but I was expecting a little more. I've never laughed so hard at random swear words though. Everyone in the theater looked at me like I was a sadistic neo-nazi whan I started laughing when the "mentally disabled" guy died.

I'll possibly buy it one DVD when it comes out, but if you watch the end credits, the ending was just a bit too "happy".

Robin Williams has a drama with Al Pacino coming out where he plays a serial killer tormenting a insomniac cop played by Al.
Ive got to see it at the very least for Williams line to Pacino "Dont worry....you'll sleep when your dead."
When my brother and I laughed at that line at the end of tense dramatic trailer we got odd stares!
