While watching this movie was somewhat enjoyable and I really loved Christopher Walken's character, I found the movie too simple, too depressing, too silly at times and it had a mediocre vibe.

The story finds an appropriately off-kilter lead in Christopher Walken, whose gaunt appearance and piercing stare makes him the ideal person to play a character who is troubled by psychic visions.
The Gnat
As a huge Stephen King fan I am always disappointed to see the adaptations of his books in films as rarely, if ever, have they done his books justice.
