Utter drivel

Rating: 2/10 (15 December 2002)

Slow, boring, nonsensical and self-indulgent, this must be amongst the most over-rated films of all time. At the end of the day, this is a film which it is fashionable to rate well, and pretend that it meant something to you - and hence you must yourself be as clever as this film desperately tries to be. Unfortunately it fails. "Being John Malkovich" isn't clever, it is contrived.
