What just happened? Seriously weird film that attracts and repulses in equal parts. An eclectic ensemble cast of internationally diverse and individually successful comedy performers and Emile Hirsch, whom is not known for his comedy chops but an accomplished dramatic actor no less.
The story is so whimsical and the characters so ludicrous that it is entirely too difficult to describe and may be interpreted differently by each of you. That may sound like a cop out but seriously if you manage to sit through the entire film then feel free to tell me what in the name of all things celluloid you think It is really about.
To match the strange story the drab sets and eighties bad fashion roll together and slowly smoke up into something hard to watch and hard to look away from. I watched it on a quiet day when I wasn't craving a blockbuster and I would suggest you do the same.
It has almost a Napoleon Dynamite, independent tilt that doesn't take itself too seriously and I feel that the cast and crew may have spent half the production laughing at the absurdity and the other half laughing at the considerable talent in the room.
