After four years being in jail for insider trading, a man comes back home incarcerated, his wife therefore sinks into a deep depression. And her world unravels when a drug prescribed by her psychiatrist has unexpected side effects.
As a thriller in the Hitchcock mould, 'Side Effects' is great fun: its characters are well acted without being entirely likeable, which makes their jeopardy all the more enjoyable while putting us at a clinical remove.
Once Side Effects gets into its crime story, medication is swept aside by movie nonsense. The storyline goes into tangles that have to be dealt with very rapidly if the audience is not to start laughing.
