NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
brownthrasher-25554 1) Fully a third of the movie was just Fichtner looking at someone silently. 2) The character Ficthner plays is truly an alcoholic. Good grief at the beer! 3 He is also a letch. 4) The ending was quite unfulfilling!
Jeffreymclean Did I say boring? I'm dumber for having watched this.
juanmuscle The reason people are like watching paint dry or whathaveyous and yous came in, its because its about the character, the protagonist, nothing about a neighbor , his wife, the bad guy, the good kid , the charismatic dissipated friend, nothing, its about this guy. The reason everything moves so slow is because he is in a stupor and god knows for how long this is why his life is in limbo, the scenes melt into each other because this life occasions this , it affords this type of nebulous haze, it lends to his almost oppressive lassitude , his like a big pall that overcomes its victims then sits there and hatches more of this insipid nothingness erelong everyone is in a state of languor. All these years he has been allowing everything to consume him, he has succumbed to a life in which his life, his plot, everything around him dictates what and when and who he is , it defines him... this is why he cannot answer anyone with a straightforward answer, he really doesn't know anything about himself, his life, other people... only to take care of his basic needs, but not relishing in what is truly delectable to that very thing that makes us want to live, that's our uniqueness , we all have that and the only way to find this is through an introspective journey free from the bonds of the outside world , getting in touch with nature so forth ... he has everything he wants, a great job, a nice son, a wonderful wife, he has just lost his way.... So what happens in the end? Someone else's plot, in effect consumes him.
jon-810-246388 It is not a thriller. On the other hand it is not boring at all, that is if you are a true cinema lover. Fitchtner is great, the 7th star is for his performance alone. The storyline is 'the same old story', simple, yet captivating enough. . The conclusion of the film is not quite convincing, in my opinion. But you may disagree, you will have to watch to find out.
