Wow, this was an unexpectedly very good psychological drama. Steven Soderbergh is a master of illusion, suspense and conniving-ness (is that even a word?). And of course he has the credits list to prove it - "Contagion", "Oceans Twelve" (and "Oceans Thirteen"), "Traffic" to the oldie but goodie, "Sex, Lies and Videotape". He seems to like to work with the same folks as Channing Tatum starred in this film and he was in Soderbergh's "Magic Mike". Ditto on Catherine Zeta-Jones who was also cast in "Traffic" and "Oceans Twelve". OH! and let's not forget Jude Law, who played the tortured psychiatrist in "Side Effects" but can also be seen in "Contagion". I think the only one who hasn't worked with Soderbergh is the other lead, Rooney Mara. (Do correct me if I'm wrong!)
So go see it - it might change the way you view anti-depressant drugs and the effects it could possibly have on you or someone you know. Or it might not change your view. I'll leave that up to you!
