IMHO REVIEW :
oh my god - doesn't anyone do research anymore? i say this because i saw 'prozac nation' a few days ago and was shocked by how crappy the movie was... well perhaps it was cause i just couldn't get into it.

let me explain. i enjoy movies that can set a premise and then follow that premise - i enjoy it even more if they do something interesting with that premise. if they break the illusion for me - it's over. i can't get over it... so how did this movie screw up? well the movie is set in mid 1980's - it's bout a gal (christina ricci) who goes to harvard or some such... that's fine. some random gal recognizes her and when asked how she knew her name the gal says.... 'i looked you up in facebook.'

facebook... come on. it's suppose to be 1985! there was no facebook! dah! facebook didn't get started until bout 2004!

so i'm already annoyed... then comes all the whinning... it's basically a drama feast. ricci is a supa talented writer (of course she is) who just isn't understood (of course she isn't) her mother doesn't understand - her father doesn't understand, her father's a bastard... blah blah blah... you get the picture.

the ending sucked even more... i just wanted this movie to end - it felt like the pharmaceutical funded the movie. the whole bloodie movie, she has theraphy, fits with drugs, falls in love blah blah blah - all doesn't work - nothing works... then she gets on prozac and BAM! suddenly she's better... WTF.

save yourself some time - unless you're an 17 year ol emo kid who feels that no-one understands them, avoid this movie.
