K-PAX (2001)

The movie itself is not completely successful, but it's consistently both engrossing and entertaining, and -- once again -- Spacey's performance creates a spell that lingers long after the lights come back on.

When Kevin Spacey takes center stage, our planet really does seem bright.

I rather like the whole mystic- crystal-revelations aspect of K-PAX, and the idea that even a psychiatrist of Jeff Bridges' handsome, American substantiality is open to notions of cosmic improbability.

Both consoling and confounding.

A pleasant enough entertainment raised above its station by the quality of its acting.
