Kevin Spacey and Jeff Bridges lead the cast in the psychological drama K-PAX. The story follows a psychiatric patient named Prot who believes that he’s an alien from the planet K-PAX, and despite his psychiatrist’s best efforts Prot proves to be remarkably convincing. Both Spacey and Bridges deliver excellent performances and have great chemistry together. And, the film does an especially good job at keeping the story ambiguous, allowing for several different interpretations. Additionally, the score’s mystical and surreal tones complements the material extraordinarily well. Full of mystery and intrigue, K-PAX is a smart and compelling film.
What a waste of fucking time, great actors making a shitty movie
I thought this movie was incredible. I was expecting a load of alien on earth cliches but not really. Any cliches are at the beginning and played for humour. I liked how it moved from a funny movie to a more serious movie.
It dealt more with being human than alien. It doesn't used any normal heart warming movie formula. The story is put together really well. The mysteries reveal just enogh. The plot unfolds perfectly. Spacey and Bridges are perfect. It leaves you with so much to think about. Also a good ending.
Spoils:
My interpretation is that Prot was inside Robert's body until he could leave him in a safe place. Prot left and took the one patient with him..... but there are many other theories. Very emotional movie
This movie is good! Both Jeff Bridges and Kevin Spacey are two of my favorite actors and the chemistry between the two in this movie was great.
Is Prot from another planet or is he just crazy? His story is so believable that even his own psychiatrist begins to doubt in what he thinks at first is just a disturbed and confused man.
As the story goes further we see that the man now known as Prot (Kevin Spacey) had an unimaginable tragedy happening to him. Dr. Mark Powell (Jeff Bridges) thinks that that is the reason he thinks that he is an alien, to cope with his loss. However the end of the story leaves some room open that he might be an alien after all.
Well, its wonderful. Spacey was cast perfectly. And i hope those are the aliens in the UAPs.
Not as intriguing as the premise would lead you to believe. It’s psych with some very familiar beats — could have been included in a high school English lit. book. Not to say it’s bad. It is definitely above average, but probably not worth your time.
"You humans. Sometimes its hard to imagine how you've made it this far."
By reading the premise you would never guess that this is an interesing and somewhat beautiful film about people and how we perceive things. Kevin Spacey and Jeff Bridges have awesome chemistry and I choose to believe that K-PAX was real.
Damn I love this movie,was amazing
It was all right. A little funny and nice. Unfortunately, it did not give rise to any thoughts.
Kevin Spacey is incredible!! Great movie with a good story, soundtrack and acting. Perhaps, when the puzzle is figured out it takes too long to finish. It's worth seeing this movie.
I like the leads and liked the premise, but I still had low expectations for this one. And then it went and snuck up on me. Very nicely done.
