Charlie Kaufman's latest, but perhaps not the greatest. I just saw it, but honestly can't really decide if I liked it or not. For better part of the film I was simply attempting to understand what the hell was going on.. 
Anyone else seen this one? Thoughts?

Me and Charlie Kaufman are done professionally.
He's a hot balloon these days. The same as Cohen brothers

Being John Malkovich
Adaptation
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Some of my favourite movies ever. I'm not giving up on Kaufman.
What goes for Coen brothers. I just saw Burn After Reading. I thought it was great!

I was lucky enough to watch this at a university film program screening(CU Boulder) and Kaufman was there to talk and answer questions afterwards. He's a trip. |

Kaufman rox indeed.
Pavel, if you feel that way about the Coen Bros, perhaps you should get a shrink... |

Burn After Reading kinda redeemed them but I still think that No Country was most overrated movie of the century

I totally agree on that.
But still, it's very good movie.

Watched it yesterday.
It's pretty confusing, but I could imagine that this is a movie about opportunities, and the fact that we usually ignore them for some reason.
We just let life pass us by, and we don't make anything to become our fate, we just watch it go by, creating a 2nd life to d the things we didn't do while we could.
Very nice movie. Its funny, incredibly inteligent and misterious.
Gotta watch it again to make more assumptions.
And for the records, Seymour Hoffman is by far the best actor atm.

Loved it. Much more abstract and not really as funny as his other stuff, but still great.
You believe in the users?
Yeah, sure. If I don't have a user, then who wrote me? |
