Synopsis: Emily Taylor (Rooney Mara) struggles to cope when her banker husband Martin (Channing Tatum) is released from an insider trading jail sentence, spiralling into depression psychiatrist Dr Jonathan Banks (Jude Law) prescribes her with anti-depressants which have dramatic side effects.
Stan's thoughts: Difficult one to write about without giving away too much of the plot. There is a lot of great stuff in here but maybe there is just one too many twists and it struggles to stay credible towards the end, although I did walk out with a smile on my face which is a good sign. It does carry you along easily with plenty of ambiguity to keep you guessing. Some interesting ideas and themes although nothing groundbreaking. Great performances from Mara and Law.
