Finally, an actual film.....

Rating: Null/10 (23 December 2000)

I first heard about this movie from a friend. He didn't like it at all, and his description of the plot was somewhat interesting. I wanted to see it, and judge for myself. So, like any faithfull IMDB-er, I immediately got on the net and looked it up. The reviews were amazing. Very highly praised. Ok, I gotta see it now.
I have seen enough movies in my life to appreciate a movie like this. It is original, funny, interesting, engrossing, and smart all at the same time. It doesn't condescend to reach those viewers who simply want "something to watch." It aims high, and acomplishes a lot. I'm not gonna describe the story. If you are reading this, then you must have already looked.
Everything was well thought out and executed to near perfection. The acting is superb, the music is interesting, and, of course, the plot is fantastic. I try not to be opinionated, but anyone who thought this was boring has a vision and mindframe as narrow as the tunnel leading into John's head. But, I guess I can sympathize. This movie is not for idiots. It is not to be watched, it is to be experienced. You have to pay attention to catch the little gags, and the cleverest bits and found here.
After I saw this, I called my friend and told him that I thought it was the most inventive and thought-provoking movie I have seen in a long time. I hope, if you are now inspired to go watch it again or for the first time, you share my enthusiasm.
10/10
