If you were expecting laughs, please go and check something else out. As a piece of drama this was beautifully presented as a tragic turn of events for two emotionally damaged individuals and was really, really well acted by the main protagonists (though efforts to portray the police was not subtle and bordered on a silly parody). The little vignettes employed really added to story. I loved how this was all put together. Stop thinking of it as a comedy and instead as a tragic slice of what love is all about, please.

I suppose we all need to be reminded about the meanings of life within every generation.....personally, I preferred the Monty Python version, myself. At least I found that entertaining. The film in question had me wondering if I should take a duster to my old copies of the Gospels...I must be getting old as I certainly felt I was being preached to by naivete of youth...also, as a film, I lost the plot as several characters seemed to look the same in different settings. Just super-egos? Give over. Poor plot development, more like! I never want to watch this film again, thanks.

As a film this does what one expects - if that involves actors, storyline, and all in the sidelines doing their jolly bit for production....as a piece of artwork, however, I would rather I hadn't devoted a moment of my precious life to this nonsense. There was nothing in the slightest appealing either in the story, the characters nor the underlying messages. If this is how people live in the USA now, stunted both by inherent and continual poverty, the need for questionable materialistic enterprises and irrational fears, then they are a lost cause. I don't need to relate to any of this.
