Most times it's disappointing when a
movie does not live up to its previews.
Usually, such a movie is a comedy,
where all the funny lines or situations
are featured — over and over again —
during those 30-second snippets that ap
pear on television. And it can even hap
pen for a drama or thriller
In the case of Jacob 's ladder, however,
not living up to its previews makes this
film much better
Previewed as a possible thriller where
the undead chase the living, Jacob's lad
der takes a turn for the better as it skill
fully avoids such a plot and becomes a
well-done psychological drama.
Jacob Singer (Tim Robbins) is a Viet
nam veteran who earned his doctorate in
philosophy, but decided to follow a ca
reer in the postal service so he wouldn't
have to think any more.
The film opens with Singer in the jun
gle. A couple of his buddies pass around
some marijuana, and as they are talking,
the enemy suddenly attacks.
In the action. Singer is stabbed with a
bayonet. The film then switches to pres
ent-day. with Singer on the subway.
Singer has flashbacks about that day
Helped by a neighbor, lezrie (Elizabeth Pena) plunges facob (Tim Robbins) into
an ice bath to bring down a life-threatening fever in "facob's I.adder."
throughout the movie as he tries to come
to grips with what actually occurred.
But as he recalls more about the inci
dent. and as he has flashbacks about his
son who died la;fore he left for Vietnam,
strange things begin to happen.
Singer begins seeing demons, which
he believes are chasing him. However,
viewers never know if these are demons
of the otherworld or of the mind.
Reality also becomes misconstrued as
Singer flashes to other periods in his life.
Eventually. Singer and the audience are
loft wondering whether Singer is alive or
dead.
Through it dll. Singer's only refuge is
Louis (Danny Aiello), who is his chiro
practor. Louis adjusts Singer's back ev
ery time things go haywire.
In the first portion of the film. Singer
calls Louis an angel, and by the end one
can only wonder if this statement isn't
true.
Until the end. wo don’t know if Singer
is alive or dead, or what it is he must
come to grips with concerning that puz
zling day in Vietnam when he was
