Amazingly imaginative film

Rating: 8/10 (1 February 2016)

At first I was sceptical about this film because of the mixed things I had heard about it but less than a few minutes in I could see this was a masterpiece of Spike Jonze already.
The ideas and concepts in this film are, although ridiculous, are so unique. John Malkovich gives an excellent performance- despite playing himself his character is very different to the real man and is great when playing himself being controlled by other characters (Craig and Dr Lester). This film also has one of my favourite twist endings of all times and left me surprised for quite a duration. Jonze provides a great piece of art (with some cringe moments) that baffles me to how his mind comes up with these fantastic ideas. Lastly this film is VERY underrated, obviously having its flaws- like most films, it does not have the well deserved rating it should have.
