This is in no way a great comedy, but it deserves credit for sheer lunacy. Zany, eccentric, absurd, goofy - I could pile on the adjectives. It is completely sui generis, which is probably a good thing. It focuses on Jason Schwartzman, a young activist and department store marketer (or something like that), who approaches an existential detective agency for help in making sense of his life. He battles it out with his boss, sales executive Jude Law and, well, the madness just goes on and on.

One of the best messed up movies ever. Paradoxically uneven, lame , funny and poignant at various times throughout the entire movie, it is still worth seeing. Boasting an eclectic all star cast who at times make it hard to tell if they are playing it straight or parodying life, it raises existential questions about life that are common to us all.

This right here is a very weird movie. And "Three Kings" (previous movie by the same director) does not prepare you for what you're about to see. A movie that tries to handle our being/existing in this world and especially tries to creep into a mind of someone who tries to uncover the "meaning" of .. well everything.

Does it succeed? It does succeed in being weird and awkward that is for sure. It has the right actors to give it that special vibe too. Dustin Hoffman could sell you that sheet (and the idea of all being one and the same more or less), even Mark Wahlberg (also seen in Three Kings) can handle the craziness with ease. It's Schwartzmanns movie though and he runs with the wild ideas of the script. Will this movie give you answers to possible questions you had? No. Will it be able to entertain you? Depends on your mood and expectations
