Final (R) 6.0

Final (2001): Bill wakes up from a coma in a hospital ward, raving about tissue regeneration experiments, final injections, organ transplants and having been cryogenically frozen. (6.1)

Director: Campbell Scott
Stars: Denis Leary, Hope Davis and J.C. MacKenzie

This is the first time I've seen Denis Leary in a dramatic role. And, he does a wonderful job of it. The movie goes very slowly in the beginning but in doing so keeps the viewer guessing as to what is actually happening. Not your action-packed, 30-cuts-a-second thriller. If you like a movie based on dialog and enjoy trying to figure out where the story is headed, then this is for you. (BTW, I watched this on an iPod Touch via Netflix ... I know, right?!) My Rating: 6.0
