K-Pax (2001)

Director: Iain Softley
Cast: Kevin Spacey, Jeff Bridges
Genre: Mystery, Drama

Plot: Prot (Kevin Sapcey) is a mental patient whom a psychiatrist (Jeff Bridges) tries to help. One can probably guess who helps whom in the end. It is the HOW for which K-Pax must be watched.


Somehow the title K-Pax is not very appealing, unless you have already seen the movie because that is when you get a grasp over things.

It is an emotional movie and really heart-wrenching for someone a bit more sentimental.

"And even though you know it is not actually going to happen--The Beam of Light--you keep hoping it does." This sentence might not make much sense to you (if you have not seen the movie) but the entire movie revolves around this sentence.

As for me, I wasn't even aware this movie features one of my favorites--Kevin Spacey, and another one whom I hold in high esteem as an actor--Jeff Bridges. Watch it for them.

8.2/10
