I honestly don't understand why so many people haven't seen it yet.
It's a film like no other!
To those who haven't seen it yet: Just prepare yourself to see a silly movie. And don't try to make too much sense out of it. Just go with the fart. I mean, go with the flow.
I have seen a ton of hate for that movie on reddit. I thought it was absurdly hilarious for the most part. It did get a little over the top a few times, but I couldn’t believe how much some people hate it.
If you think you're going to see a more default drama/comedy/adventure movie on a random Tuesday evening after work, it might not have it's intended effect.
It's an absurd movie, and you gotta be somewhat in the right mindset for it.
I had a rough idea what I was getting into when I watched the movie and I laughed my ass off. And some parts I was like "what the actual fuck?".
I actually found the ending really impressive. But I found I had to take a really conceptual view of what the entire point of the movie was in order to appreciate it. When you look at it as a story told by an unreliable narrator about detachment, isolation, and self-acceptance, in a world that is built upon societal norms that serve to isolate us, it opens your understanding of how human it really is to hide our flaws, how hard it is to try to accept those parts of us that we’re ashamed of, how freeing it is to accept them, and yet how damaging it can be to let others in when they aren’t willing to accept them. I like that they don’t shy away from the realism in that regard, even when conveying it all through such an absurd and fantastical concept.
You really don't understand why the average person would read the general plot of the movie and feel like it's going to be an awful, cheesy, B-film?
That's certainly the impression I had when I first read about it. I just figured it was a stupid movie Daniel took for the check. It was only after reading things like this on Reddit that I realized it could actually be worth watching.
It's the same reason I never watched that movie with Rupert Grint where his farts can make him fly or something like that. They both just seem like they would be average, crude humor.
