In fact, the criticism that this movie seems "lost" in its storytelling is exactly what living with a schizophrenic is like. To me, it made the movie more realistic and compelling. Great acting by Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx enhanced the entire project.

Just his appearing in a film makes it a reason to rush to the theatre, even if you're not 100% sure about the film itself. The tiniest things about him just rivet you to the screen. His actions, reactions, gestures... just the way he uses his eyes... Well, i guess those are just some of the things that make him one of our finest actors. I cannot wait for Sherlock this Christmas, and IM2, well who isn't psyched for that? Being a die-hard Downey fan from way back pre-Chaplin days and through all his ups and downs, you can imagine I'm just thrilled for him now. Oh, and keep up the good work. I love your blogs!
