Ouch. This was one role where I thought Penn should have passed. Having spent a fair amount of time around mentally handicapped adults, my wife manages five goup homes, I found his performance anything but believable. My wife cringed at his speech and physical mannerisms. Which is not an indictment of Penn, as he did a better job than Ribisi and Lewis in "The Other Sister." I found his mannerisms and speech almost as though he has watched other performances of mentally handicapped adults rather than spending time with other mentally handicapped adults for his frame of reference.The movie I felt to be predictable. As though Hollywood, once again on it's soapbox, this time telling us that mentally handicapped people are people too. I am often tired of Hollywood coming late to the party, then acting like they are telling us something we did not know.
