Jennifer Lopez is a psychologist who participates in experiments allowing her to enter the minds of comatose patients. The police ask her to enter the mind of a serial killer to help locate one of his victims still alive. She finds a horrific world populated by the sadistic side of the killer as well as his innocent side as a child. She gradually learns about his traumatic childhood but is unable to win him over and become trapped in his mind. Police officer Vince Vaughn agrees to undergo the procedure to save her and finds a clue to the whereabouts of the missing victim. Vivid set production influenced by modern art as well as the rock videos that Singh had directed in the 80's and 90's. Lopez is miscast, but even she can't spoil this immensely entertaining and creative film.
