It's weird, but it's brilliant!!!

Rating: Null/10 (20 March 2001)

Being John Malkovich is a very strange movie. The storyline is one that's never seen before: a man finds a door that goes into the head of John Malkovich. That's pretty weird. But that's good!
This film is clearly a satire on Hollywood if you ask me (and if you disagree: e-mail me!). The puppets of John Cusack's character are clearly a metafor for actors these days. And that everybody goes in John Malkovich his head is clearly a statement that many people want to be someone else. Somebody famous.
The acting is great. John Cusack is (with Edward Norton & Brad Pitt) one of the most talented actors these days and Catherine Keener is very good as 'the-girl-who-says-what-she-thinks'. Only Cameron Diaz isn't very good because she is overacting.
I rate it 8 out of 10
