Amazon.com video review:
Get shot in the head and become a better person. This 1991
Mike Nichols
(Wolf) film stars
Harrison Ford as a big-shot cold-hearted lawyer who gets a bullet in
his brain during a holdup. The film de-emphasizes the traumas of
recovery to focus on the title character's personality change after
the fact. The canny Ford gets to work from his full, familiar palette
of arrogance to boyishness, and even builds Henry from top to bottom
after the wounded fellow awakens with no memory. But this is a slow
and unremarkable film from Nichols, its sentimentality eclipsing all
else, most of all profound insight. --Tom Keogh
