Panic

A film review by Christopher Null - Copyright © 2000 Filmcritic.com

See if this sounds familiar: Angst-ridden hitman decides to see a shrink about his problems. The similarities with The Sopranos and Analyze This end there, though. Panic is a drama, and an overwrought one at that. While the romantic dancing between leading man Macy and ingenue Campbell are amusing, the overbearing father of Sutherland and the chilly wife of Ullman make Panic fade from memory pretty quickly. It's pretty clear why this never saw theatrical release (though I've seen worse this year).
