Prot (Kevin Spacey) is a man who claims to be an alien from planet K-Pax. He is sent to an asylum, considered as a crazy guy. Dr. Mark Powell (Jeff Bridges) is his psychiatrist, who gets close to his patient and questions his origins. Is Prot an alien or a lunatic? This movie is very different and does not present many clichés. Even at my home, my wife and I have different perceptions and interpretations of this character. Being polemic is a great quality for this type of movie. Is it a drama or a sci-fi story? The alternative end and the deleted scenes on DVD (DTS system) show more explicit details regarding Prot. The movie is a little bit longer than necessary, but it deserves to be watched more than one time. My vote, based on my first impression of this movie, is six.
