Fine beginning, with Brendon Gleeson giving instructions to a young girl AS HE SHOULD! 'I'm not mad!' she claims when she most obviously IS! +1 star.
And then arrives Dr. Newgate to the 'Asylum'. And he is greeted by Sir Ben Kingsley! On the shores of Kingsley's Kingdom!
Haha, and then dinner where we meet Mickey Finn and Dr. Newgate makes fun of his name. Beautiful. Looneys and 'Doctors' all seated together at dinner! +1 Star.
When you do find 'the inmates are running the asylum' it gets really convoluted. And in a couple cases disappointingly stupid. -1 Star
I do love Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley in these roles. The thing is Kingsley lets Newgate get away with too much which is ultimately dumb.
But, the script does flip a little bit, thanks to Mickey Finn.
And the end, I thought it was going to be too cheese but it really weren't that bad! +1 Star (Mostly because Ben Kingsley!)
7/10.
