An accurate resume of my darks years: June 1996 – June 1998 (web)

If this American production fails again as usual to be imaginative in the main character's occupation (a writer...),the movie is however an excellent surprise to depict a psychological pain and the fraud of the shrinks.

I know clearly of what i can write because i took this road in my past (remember my title?) and suffer the same depersonalization syndrome (in my case, the start wasn't a pot but a total burnout from college exams to stay the top of my class for a 4th year). Thus, everything I faced during this time is on the screen with great intelligence:

  • the feeling to not recognize his own body, to disconnect from the places, the other people (


  • the same consultations with distant psys, their drugs, their side effects and especially on male potency.


  • the same fear of mixing words and death (mine was about thinking to stop my heart) and the same reply of no connexion.


  • the same anxiety or hyperventilation crisis and the candid help from parents.


  • the same indifference from psys and the same lovestruck for one (mine was a dark Italian with green eyes).


And finally, the same solution to escape this doom and live again: get rid of psys, drugs and do sport and meet friends!

This personal, intimate journey is here supported by a great cast: Perry is the finest member of the "friends" family with a real talent for comedy and proximity, Lynn is a fresh newcomer, Perry's friend is always funny and it was good to see again Doc's girlfriend and Cancerman!

Unfortunately, this movie has great chances to fall in the movies limbos. At least, i'm happy to have found it and i urge you to do the same, even if you are not a psycho!

Give this film a chance

Although touted as a romantic comedy this film contains more drama than comedy and this is down to the fact that the lead character has depersonalisation.

Anyone expecting the normal Matthew Perry performance (sarcastic, slightly neurotic but likable guy) will be disappointed as here Perry ditches many of these traits to put in a mature and effective performance that makes the audience root for his character Hudson. This may be a different type of character but is no less enjoyable.

Lynn Collins is good as Sarah,Hudsons love interest and her warmth just shines through while Kevin Pollak also provides comedy support in the best friend role.

While this film contains slightly more swearing than perhaps is needed it is still an enjoyable, warm and at times thought provoking piece that sadly never got the mainstream recognition it deserved.

lovely Lynn Collins made this interesting

Hudson Milbank (Matthew Perry) is a depressed Hollywood screenwriter who can't feel anything. He bounces from one psychiatrist to another. His life takes an interesting turn when he meets the lovely Sara Harrison (Lynn Collins).

Director/writer Harris Goldberg doesn't have the creativity to make this movie quirky. I wasn't certain what it was trying to do for quite awhile. Then Lynn Collins gets into the movie and I figure this was a nice little rom-com. But then Lynn gets yanked out of the movie. It completely disrupted the flow. Mary Steenburgen provided some quirky funny moments in the last half, but it's too little. Lynn was sorely missed. A depressed Matthew Perry is just not compelling all by himself.
