The Jacket (2005). A solid entry that defies a genre, The Jacket is not to be pidgeon-holed. The DVD cover description kept me from watching this for way too long. The story itself may have a couple of holes, but this only serves to allow for more interpretations. The acting was solid, with great performances by Adien Brody, Keira Knightlely, Daniel Craig and company. In one sense, it is a combo of movies already done, but the direction makes it a fresh entry. This will prove to be a moving experience with a timeline that is both refreshing and competent. Ashe.
