Rating: 9/10 (16 December 2004)

I've seen quite a lot of movies, including some weird ones (Lost Highway for instance), but this one is by far the weirdest that I've ever seen. There just aren't enough words to fully describe this movie.
A puppeteer doesn't earn enough money as an artist, so he needs to find a 'real' job. He finds an ad in a newspaper, reacts and is hired immediately. The only problem is that the offices are on the 7.5th floor and the walls are only half as high as in a normal office... During his work, he discovers a secret door behind a filing cabinet, opens it and sees a tunnel. He enters the tunnel and ends up in the head of the actor John Malkovich for about 15 minutes. He sees what the man sees and can steer his reactions, thoughts and words... After the 15 minutes he falls out of the sky, somewhere in a field outside of the city...
At first I just couldn't get used to the whole concept of the movie, but after a while it felt "normal". I don't know how the writer ever came up with the idea, but at least you can be sure that he didn't copy it from someone else... Oh well, I really had a good time watching it and I give it an 8.5/10. Perhaps the score might even go up as I see it a few more times.
