7 August 2006. Warning: Spoilers. A somewhat uneven comedy with a much more dramatic beginning and a much funnier middle, and the traditional but solid ending. Robert Downey Jr. gets to mimic several known actors including Charles Grodin, Alfre Woodard, Kyra Sedgwick, and Tom Sizemore as their characters supposedly alternately inhabit his body. This movie begins with a much more somber tone becoming a comedy when Robert Downey is shown grown and encounters his companion spirits. The ending of the movie is nice and solid with little sappy or syrupy gushing ending, but a much more deliberative but emotionally satisfying resolution. This is a fun, literally "spirited" movie with heart and soul, about redemption and second chances. There are a few cheesy pieces in the movie, but overall it's a nice bit of comedic acting in an entertaining movie. Seven out of Ten Stars.
