Leave it to Michael Keaton.
Whoever he's playing, from Beetlejuice to Batman and Birdman, Keaton is brilliant at suggesting a bristling intelligence that's alive to every nuance.
But something is off. And Keaton makes sure we feel it. Why is Knox ordering coffee when a full cup is right in front of him? That's what Muncie wants to know. And so do we.The answer comes the next day when Knox, a Gulf War veteran with PhDs in English and history, sees a neurologist, who nails him with a diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, a form of fast-moving dementia. It gives him only a few weeks before his identity—who he is and how he thinks—goes away for keeps.
Also remember, "Knox Goes Away" is only Keaton's second film as a director, after 2009's "The Merry Gentlemen" in which he played another assassin in crisis. Is Keaton working out some issues here? Maybe, but they're not what you think.
