This is essentially a variation of the gimmick used in The Sixth Sense. I felt stupid, and worse used, for falling for it again. The movie ceased to be interesting from the time the gimmick is revealed. Russell Crowe mumbles his way through the dialogue, to the point I thought subtitles would have helped. He's like a schizophrenic Forrest Gump. The relationship between Crowe and Connelly is overemphasized and overly-romantic. It's all typical for a Ron Howard movie, based on fact but ironically impossible to believe.
