Location, location!

I watched this on cable last night, and then again just now - it's that kind of film, it requires that you see it at least twice in order to see what you 'missed' the first time. Most of it holds up, I have to say. My favorite part is at the end, when we find out that -=- SPOILER ALERT -=- Dr. Delazo is really the Big D, and he created the Eriq version of himself to study Dr. Adams more closely. -=- END OF SPOILER; minor spoilers to follow.

Regarding what's really going on in this movie: There are clues throughout, beginning with the most obvious, the name of the 'hospital' (as so many people have pointed out). I think that Sinbad's 'orderly' is not God, as has been suggested, but rather an angel, whose role it is to try and give Dr. Adams one last chance to possibly redeem himself.

I also wanted to mention that the film has been compared in reviews to so many other movies but I don't believe anyone has mentioned the film that I think it resembles the most, Albert Brooks' "Defending Your Life".

It's a bold movie, from start to finish, as La Salle mentioned in an interview that he wanted it to be. Mission accomplished, I would say. Big time.
