Review

Doctor Williams, wanted in overkill. Playing a physician for what seems like the upteenth time, Williams is certainly at home in this overly sentimental, crowd-pleasing comedy (based on a true story) which gives the actor the chance to both mug and tug (at the heart). He plays Patch Adams, a sanitorium inmate who decides to go to medical school; his unique, irreverent humor and outlook make him a hit with patients and other students, but not so with school administration. Eventually, he opens his own make-shift clinic for the poor, which is still in operation today. Williams is able to milk some good laughs thanks to Patch's schtick, but the story goes way overboard in the syrup department, and patches in Adams' life are glossed over which gives the film a jagged feel. This is for Williams fans who can't get enough of the energetic comedian (you know who you are).
