"How To Be Funny, Smart, and Look Good, Too"

Rating: 10/10 (10 April 2002)

Finally, a comedy film with a brain. Some people want something to stimulate their eyes and minds, too. Spike J. does just that in his directorial film debut. Bravo to Mr. Charlie Kaufman, the writer.
An ingenious view on delving into each others skins and minds, and ultimately delving into our own. Metaphysical, but not heavy handed. This film is also quite inspired by Spike's experience in music video direction. He's done many videos for amazing artists (Bjork, Weezer, Fatboy Slim) and his craftmenship shows through in the way he chose to portray this quirky film. The actors are amazing (that includes John M. himself). Comedy is getting smarter.
