Sexylocher Masterful Movie
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
