Any Christopher Walken movie, at least in retrospect post-“cowbell”, is inherently somewhat funny to me. Why? Christopher Walken.
But that’s not the only interest here. It IS somewhat sad, convincingly dark and weird, and fairly intriguing and (at times) thrilling. Also slightly cheezy and dated in parts, but definitely much more good than bad.
Walken is actually quite good, Martin Sheen is great as insane-senator guy, and Herbert Lom is very good as Walken’s doctor/friend/advisor.
