It is a breath of fresh air to find a movie so original. Some may be turned off by the movie and possibly find it pretentious but it’s not. It pokes fun of existentialism a bit while at the same time making you think about it realistically. The movie didn’t make me laugh out loud as much as other comedies but I had a smile on my face the entire time watching it. If you don’t take it too seriously and get the humor you will really enjoy it. I had a smile on my face the entire time. The comedic timing by all of the principal cast is right on target. I definitely recommend it. Not only is it funny, but it does make you think a little while not being pretentious. Russell hit it dead on with this one.
