A young married woman (Rooney Mara) finds herself unable to cope when her husband is released from gaol after being found guilty of insider trainer. She turns to a psychiatrist (Jude Law) for help but experiences 'Side Effects' from the medication he prescribes.
For much of its length this is an interesting study of the world of pharmaceuticals and their marketing but after about an hour the movie takes an unexpected turn into something different. For one moment I thought I must have fallen asleep briefly and woken into a new movie altogether.
Overall, an entertaining albeit far fetched movie.
★★★1/2
