Unusal Treatment
The Jacket- is a good psychological thriller that has good horror elements in it. It does mess with your mind.
The plot: Amnesiac Gulf War veteran Jack Starks (Adrien Brody) can't explain why he's been found at the scene of a murder. Ordered to a mental hospital, Jack is subjected to Dr. Thomas Becker's (Kris Kristofferson) unusual treatment plan, which involves mysterious injections, sensory deprivation and confinement in a straitjacket. Locked away on his own, Jack discovers he can travel to the future, where he's compelled to help a onetime acquaintance (Keira Knightley) and investigate his own odd fate.
It does has a really good cast, it is a slow pace film in the beginning but does pick up in the middle.
So overall a good psychological thriller.

Gripping from start to finish
I was absolutely hooked by this psychological thriller. A lot of twists and turns, you delve into the mind of an alcoholic, and even feel like you experience the same nerve wracking incidents in which nothing is fluid. The characters were believable, with both good and bad sides highlighted. Nothing is what it seems. A well-constructed book.

Flimsy story, almost comedic
While this story was extremely engaging for its genre and content, it started off with the mystery of a psychological thriller and ended up becoming like a 1970's hammer horror. It couldn't hold itself in the end and the description of the "thing" reminded me of a Sam Raimi style boring gorefest. A bit of a disappointment after 14 hours of listening.
