Leave it to John Cusack to make me almost tolerate this sappy, feel-good bullshit. In what should be called K-Pax Jr., this kid goes around in sunglasses saying he's an alien, so a single sci-fi writer adopts him. Normally this is where I'd stop paying attention, but goddammit if Cusack didn't charm me into changing this from a "I will never see this, no matter what" to a "I'll flip past it when it's on TBS but eventually go back to it during a commercial of something else and end up watching to the end."

I kept waiting and waiting, but no John Cusack acting adorable, just vagina stabbing. What gives???

Few actors have burned through more goodwill -- without committing a crime -- than John Cusack.
