Did you people see the same film I saw?
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
This movie is great, I loved Funnel and I loved this. I don't know who these old curmudgeons are but in today's world the fact that a piece of entertainment could be so polarizing is a good thing.
If you're not from Southern California, you might not get it entirely. But I lived there a long time, and I thought this movie was very entertaining. It really, in a comedy way, showed the difference between normal human responses to things and "California" responses to things. Personally, I'd watch it again just to make sure I got all the subtle humor. I liked it. :)
This film is in the same vein as Curb Your Enthusiasm. A simple journey to a store to buy lighter fluid escalates with small hiccups that just get worse and worse. It's small frustrations and annoyances rather than an epic plot. An annoying Uber Driver, a store clerk enforcing the restroom for customers only policy.You do feel sorry for the guy but he is just so indifferent to all the things that happens. I liked this film. It's gentle and doesn't have complex plot. It's not the best film ever made but better than a lot of offerings in cinema. It's a reasonable indie film
I've been alive for more than 43 years. I've never tried to review a movie until I viewed this one, and frankly I felt I had to watch it all the way through just to see if there was any redeeming value to it. I've viewed easily 5000 films. I have seen work of this quality, but it's been since I was in college viewing other students films. I feel sorry for the people that funded this project. It lacks story, intent, acting, production, and purpose. Simply the worst movie I've ever seen.
