K-PAX Reviews

Terrific acting by Kevin Spacey and Jeff Bridges.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 24, 2010

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 30, 2006

Casting [Spacey and Bridges] against each other gives their scenes together a believability and intensity that comes directly out of their contrasting acting styles.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 7, 2003

The most shameless psychological quackery to come out of Hollywood since Mumford.

| Original Score: D | May 9, 2002

Go with it ... and this good-looking movie is a moving and cathartic experience.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 17, 2002

A warm, fuzzy and funny duet between [Kevin] Spacey and [Jeff] Bridges.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Nov 16, 2001

K-Pax goes all too quickly k-put.

Full Review | Nov 11, 2001

As a brainless laugh riot, it's as funny as a flu epidemic. As a drama, it's an unintentional Robin Williams vehicle sour beyond its shelf life.

| Nov 1, 2001

The specter of Robin Williams looms large.

Full Review | Oct 30, 2001

Ultimately, the movie may puzzle audiences more than entertain them.

Full Review | Oct 29, 2001

Seems somehow unfocused and meandering.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 28, 2001

As a pop parable of heavenly reassurance and redemption, Ian Softley's K-PAX is probably the kind of entertainment the movie industry refers to when it promises gentler, feel-good fare in light of current anxieties.

| Oct 26, 2001

A queasy amalgamation of Awakenings, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Starman.

Full Review | Oct 26, 2001

Flawed script turns well-acted K-PAX into a near miss.

| Oct 26, 2001

Spacey rings all the right emotional bells as well, and could probably score another Oscar for playing Prot.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 26, 2001

A syrupy melange of psychobabble and extraterrestrial mystery, offering further proof that planet Hollywood is made of cheese, with lots of holes.

Full Review | Oct 26, 2001

K-PAX virtually becomes a two-character film -- a mighty talky one with an utterly banal ending.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 26, 2001

It's pure pleasure to witness Kevin Spacey commanding the screen, and Jeff Bridges ain't exactly a rank amateur.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 26, 2001

Its conflict is so understated, and takes so long to engage us, that the film is as flat as a stretch of Interstate 70 east of Denver.

| Oct 26, 2001

I admired how the movie tantalized us with possibilities...

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 26, 2001
