Watch this to see Will Ferrell in a new avatar.

Rating: Null/10 (30 September 2018)

Stranger than Fiction has a fascinating synopsis: An auditor suddenly finds a female narrating his every move. After getting accustomed to it he is given a jolting prediction- that he is soon to die, which understandably freaks him out. Trying to make sense he goes around to people which form the body of the film. This is a thought provoking movie with a fine turn by Will Ferrell as the lead who hears his life narration- an uncharacteristic foray into serious acting by the comedian. Emma Thomson lends her lush voice as the narrator. For an offbeat film with a soul you cannot go wrong with Stranger than Fiction.
