Review:
The fall movie season achieves comic liftoff thanks to Ricky
Gervais, a master of deadpan hilarity playing a dentist who sees
dead people. If you don't know Gervais from the original Brit TV
version of The Office or HBO's Extras, then you
are an idiot and deserve root-canal surgery without Novocain. Wait,
I'm starting to sound like Bertram Pincus, the Scrooge in a dental
smock for whom hell is other people. (Listen, he does live in
Manhattan.) When a colonoscopy gone wrong gives Bertram a taste of
death, he wakes up with ghosts popping up every which way demanding
things from him. It's Sartre's No Exit played for
laughs.
Cheers to David Koepp, who writes blockbusters (Indy 4,
Spider-Man), directs occultish thrillers (Secret Window,
Stir of Echoes) and finds a beguiling comfort zone...
