All Critics (20) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (12) | Rotten (8)
Mad to Be Normal boils a fascinating subject down into a slightly clunky, simplistic bio-drama.
Tennant's performance is strong, and he gives energy to a script that jolts in different directions looking for focus.
More illuminating as a character study, with the ever-charismatic Tennant showing how Laing was able to dominate those around him so easily.
Mad to Be Normal takes the life story of someone who defied norms in every aspect of his life and then squeezes said story into a traditional biopic. What should have been a film vibrating with Laing's unique energy ends up being unengaging.
Mad To Be Normal lingers well after the credits have finished rolling.
A thought provoking biopicture focusing on the countercultural life and work of the controversial Scottish psychiatrist R. D. Laing.
