    Psych 101

    The movie itself wasn't terrible but whomever wrote this movie DOES NOT understand the difference between Bi-Polar disorder, and schizophrenia. Christina Ricci's character is schizophrenic bordering on paranoia.

    • What was the name of that song they kept playing throughout this movie? I'm usually good at "name that tune", but can't place this one. There are no soundtrack credits at the end, either.
