I keep thinking David Cronenberg is one of my favorite directors, but here’s something I’m slowly realizing: for as many of his films that I love (Videodrome, The Fly, Scanners, Eastern Promises), there are a growing number I feel ambivalent about (A Dangerous Method, eXistenZ). We can throw Dead Ringers in the latter pile.
