Original, Bizarre & Funny

Rating: 9/10 (7 March 2008)

Bizarre is the one word to sums up this film. The protagonists include a puppeteer & an actor playing himself which must be a first.I have never seen anything like it yet strangely it does work. For such a strange film it is not pretentious & can be enjoyed without having to think about too much.
All the cast are great & with Cameron Diaz dressing down it took me 30 minutes before I realised she was in the film.
The plot does seem to unravel towards the end but I prefer to applaud the effort of trying something different which mostly works. One of my favourites.
If you like your movies to be predictable & have Hollywood endings then this is not for you.
