"Stay" defied its title last year by vanishing from theaters about as quickly as it appeared, but "The Sixth Sense" rip-off,
with its catchy cover and quality cast, is earning a little more attention on DVD. Not a lot, but some. Okay, it''s still not getting any attention - that''s why I''m writing a review.
Not for everyone, "Stay" is a weird psychological thriller about a psychiatrist (Ewan McGregor) who is dating an ex-patient (Naomi Watts) and who has taken over a case of a young college student (Ryan Gosling) who is hearing voices, seeing things and claims that he will kill himself in three days. While McGregor quickly labels him as serious, he doesn''t realize how serious everything is - he too begins to spiral out of reality, seeing people that should be dead, among other things.
Now, when I said this movie was a "Sixth Sense" rip-off, I was not implying the ending. This movie deals with ghosts, but not in the same way. It has a twist ending, but it is a bit different. And the twist ending isn''t nearly as engaging.
