A solid attempt to wrestle with some big questions. The cast is exemplary and the premise and script are well reasoned and artful. But it doesn't quite come together.

Maybury is an artist in addition to a director and it's clear that he has an eye for colour, which he uses cleverly to reinforce emotion.

The Jacket is doing nothing but sampling elements of Jacob's Ladder, The Silence of the Lambs and Memento.

Tadjenin seems to draw inspiration from two books: "10 ways to copy 12 Monkeys" --a far inferior read to "10 ways to write 12 Monkeys"-- and "Common Sense: A Stranger"

There's nothing wrong with a little vicarious experience when you go to the movies, but the director seems to think that his supernatural psycho thriller has to drive you crazy, just to get what it's like to be really insane.

It just bounces Brody back and forth in time and yanks us around, and around, and around.

It suffers from a common thriller syndrome these days: the desire to explain away madness with logic.
