Thoughts!
- Mini review: Awesome concept, so-so execution.
- The beginning was promising, and funny parts were sprinkled around the place, but in the end I didn't like any of the characters. All of them were kind of jerks.
- It reminded me of something Michel Gondry would make.
- Speaking of which, the chase sequence reminded me of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind because-- WAIT A MINUTE the writer who wrote Malkovich wrote Eternal Sunshine! Huh! That Charlie Kaufman.
- I encourage you to watch this simply for its bizarre uniqueness. Just... be sure to keep below average expectations.
