A film filled with annoying people that allows you hate them, contrasted nicely with some great performances and lovable characters in the form of Wahlberg and Hoffman.
The film verges on being hateable itself for its overtly alternative indie and off the wall style, but manages to stay within the lines and just about remain quirky and endearing.
For me it mirrored ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’. Focusing on a hopeless man (Schwartzman) who is looking for meaning in some ‘coincidences’ within his life. To try and solve these riddles he hires detectives who spy on every area of his life and with their theories on life and existence turn his turn his world upside down including everyone he knows.
A must see if you like these type of films, if not then its an enjoyable couple of hours anyway, but there are better examples out there.
