Odd, touching, and unique, Punch-Drunk Love is also delightfully funny, utilizing Adam Sandler's comic persona to explore the life of a lonely guy who finds love. This is a surprisingly tender film wrapped in a terrifying black dramedy and a triumph from America's most promising young director.

Honestly, it has been a while since I have seen this flick and I should definitely re-watch it whenever I have the opportunity. Anyway, I remember very well when it was released, back then, I was expecting a lot from this movie. Not because of Sandler (by now, I have seen most of his movies and his whole gimmick is pretty lame in my opinion) but because it was directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, pro... read more

"14.3. Blu-ray Uusintakatselu. Visuaalisesti kiinnostava absurdi "romanttinen komedia", jonka päähahmon kevyet siskojen aiheuttamat traumat ja niiden kanssa eläminen ovat samanaikaisesti hauskoja sekä surullisia ja jollain tapaa samastuttavia. Aika helposti luettavissa myös kuvaukseksi autismin kirjolla olevan miehen elämästä ja sellaisenakin toimisi erinomaisesti. Kertoo myös rakkauden voimasta. Sen en myönnä liikuttaneen, ettei maine mene. Adam Sandler on loistava."
