Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 5 out of 14
  2. Negative: 1 out of 14
  1. John Zorn's ethnically tinged score is effectively minimalist without succumbing to Philip Glass-style monotony, and Harris Yulin is effective as the hero's semi-estranged father.
  2. Best of all is Holm, who is consistently hilarious as the sarcastic shrink from hell.
  3. 25
    A wan effort at "Annie Hall"-style comedy, has about as much Manhattan sophistication as a gas station in Chippewa Falls, Wis.
