Rogue's Review:

This film works for ONE reason: Haley Joel Osment

Haley Joel Osment gives an unbelievably magnificent performance in this movie - truly, one of the finest characterizations I have ever seen in any film in my life. You would have to be made of...well, metal (and/or stone) to resist relating to (and feeling) his emotionally wrenching desire for his mommy's love, but his David is heart-breaking not because he TRIES to make you feel, but because he actually believes what he is projecting on the screen - he is one of THOSE kind of actors, who go inside the role - deep, deep inside - the same way he did in "The Sixth Sense" and the virtually-too-sad-to-be-watchable-by-the-end "Pay It Forward."

Jude Law is also perfectly believable as a mecha gigolo (the ultimate boy-toy!?) - the way he stands, his face, the way he moves - another brilliant performance from an always-fascinating actor. Loved the teddy bear too.

The film would be a 10 if it weren't for the fact that it seems (upon the 3rd viewing - wasn't sure the first two times) not quite connected; it's like each act is a different movie in itself, and if Haley Joel hadn't provided such a powerfully strong emotional center the film would have been completely sprawled out of control. Give this boy an Oscar NOW.
