“Bad Therapy” (** out of four) was mediocre and warmed-over Woody Allen about a middle-aged couple (Alicia Silverstone and Rob Corddry) who seek out marriage counseling with a therapist (Michaela Watkins) who turns their marriage and psychological basis upside down as she procedes to take romantic interest in the husband and seek him out for an affair! Outlandish premise is kept on track somewhat by its likeable cast but it never fully ignites as either a comedy or a romantic drama. Screenplay is by Nancy Doyne who did a lukewarm adapatation of her own novel.
