A good movie

I kept bumping in this movie so I was really curious to check what it was about. Well, it seems to be one of the most polarizing movies that came out recently and, apparently, you either love it or hate it. Personally, Iโ€™m one of the few remaining in the middle, in the sense that I thought it was pretty good but I still donโ€™t think it was really brilliant though. Basically, it is a really weird flick with some very experimental elements. I almost went completely blank before watching this movie and it is only a few days ago that I found out that it was about a killer tire. Fortunately, I didnโ€™t know anything else and it is the best way to watch such a flick. Indeed, there were so many โ€˜WTFโ€™ moments, it was just really cool. Unfortunately, it gets a little bit repetitive pretty quickly. It is like the audience watching the show. It was at first pretty neat but it got old really fast. The point is that Dupieux had a few good ideas but he kept repeating them on and on and it would have been interesting if they went further than those few ideas. Still, they get some extra points just for the sheer originality and absurdity of the whole concept and it is rather impressive that they managed to make an enjoyable and interesting flick about a damned tire. Anyway, to conclude, even if I wasn't completely sold, I thought it was still pretty good and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in experimental movies.
