Based on the memoir of journalist Susannah Cahalan, the movie follows a woman who, after experiencing strange symptoms, is misdiagnosed and sent to a psychiatric ward, when really, there's a rare brain condition at work. The premise is intriguing, but it's the melodramatic execution that left the movie adaptation with a disappointing 13 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.
