http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/07/04/Neverwas--A-Fairy-Tale-for-the-Gen-X-Set.aspx With a strong performance from Ian McKellen, NEVERWAS comes very close. Psychiatrist Zach Riley (Aaron Eckhart) leaves his fast-track Cornell job to take a position in a rundown, underfunded New England mental facility that housed his father (Nick Nolte) before the man took his own life. Zach needs to uncover the truth about the man that haunts his occasional sleep and find the reasons for his self-inflicted demise. Part of that journey is decoding a hugely popular fairy tale his father authored, “Neverwas,” the story of a magical land just beyond the mountains, with dark knights, good and evil wizards and a brave king who fights for his realm with the aid of a young boy named Zachary. Despite solid supporting performances from Brittany Murphy and Nick Nolte, as well as a sincerely moving turn from Ian McKellen, the movie struggles to rise above the innate problems in the script. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/07/04/Neverwas--A-Fairy-Tale-for-the-Gen-X-Set.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/07/04/Neverwas--A-Fairy-Tale-for-the-Gen-X-Set.aspx#1351 I THOUGHT THIS MOVIE WAS A VERY GOOD MOVIE FOR ALL PEOPEL TO WATCH AND LEARN FROM. ralphespinoza http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/07/04/Neverwas--A-Fairy-Tale-for-the-Gen-X-Set.aspx#1351 Sat, 01 Sep 2007 14:09:20 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/07/04/Neverwas--A-Fairy-Tale-for-the-Gen-X-Set.aspx#2534 haven't se it yet. but it sounds interesing.will let you know how it was. when i get it WAVELYN http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/07/04/Neverwas--A-Fairy-Tale-for-the-Gen-X-Set.aspx#2534 Thu, 13 Dec 2007 02:31:26 GMT
