(Spoiler ahead)
K-PAX is a movie that will most likely get better with more viewings, but the first one is satisfying enough if you just want to see it once. It brings us on the journey of a being, or sorts, called Prot (Kevin Spacey) who is found in a train station and since he claims to be from a planet called K-PAX, is transferred to a mental hospital in greater New York. Jeff Bridges becomes his psychiatrist and immediately becomes fascinated by his new patient's dilussion, but wants to know more, at any costs. The plot starts to un-needengly wander in the third act, but the performances (in particular by Spacey and Bridges), overall feel and an ending that leaves it up to the audience to figure out what happenned make this a good see in the theater. B+
