NOTES |
Walken plays
Johnny Smith who after a car accident is 5 |
|
years in a
coma. When he wakes he has psychic powers |
|
and a limp
from damage to his legs. Not to mention his |
|
girlfriend
has got married. Johnny can see into the future but |
|
as his usual
with this kind of power he sees only bad things. |
|
After a few
'minor' incidents he foresees that a politician is |
|
going to
start a world war. |
|
Not such a
bad film despite the silliness. Johnny's limp could |
|
be said to
underwrite his psychic powers. |
|
