Almost a perfect film

Rating: 9/10 (6 May 2000)

And it would be a perfect film were it not, in the end, a
simple comedy. I love a good comedy - and this fits the bill
amongst the best, but it could have been more. There are
deeper issues that could have been explored and discovered better than they were. Ideas regarding expression, behavior, and control were never brought into
focus.
Regardless of this, it is still a 9/10 movie. It is bizarre and
funny - one would half expect it to be a Terry Gilliam film
along the lines of Brazil! A wonderful, if ultimately
lightweight, film.
