Ok i&#8217;m a philosopher, and i happen to be interested in the existential phenomena.  This movie grates my understanding of the existential dilemma with it&#8217;s poor use of facts and it&#8217;s unfortunate adoption of half-ass theories that sound like new age religious fanatacism then any real detailed self-analysis.  Anyone who questions humanity&#8217;s existence should be angered by such a trivialization of this dillemma.  <\/p>\n<p>BUT<\/p>\n<p>It is a movie.  Novel concept eh? As such i neglect the above objection to focus on it&#8217;s intents and it&#8217;s conclusions.  This is how i come away with such a high opinion of the movie.  Sure if the movie took itself seriously, then it would be flawed.  It does not though.  The movie goes from character to character showing a demonstration of humanity in it&#8217;s most simple existence, and then using it as comedic interlude.  What concludes is a hillarious movie that attempts to be taken intellegently.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Whalberg was absoleutly hillarious, and Dustin Hoffman was exactly what i expected.  MW surprised the hell out of me though.  I didn&#8217;t think he would pull off being such a good demonstration of masculine ignorance and yet so damned full of concern.  <\/p>\n<p>The psychotic demonstrations of the inner soul of the main character were interesting on a theoretical basis, they are exists in cut-out facsimilies of the world.  All the characters demonstrate a form of false existence in the hallucinations.  <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Schitzophrenic light hearted tale about existence, that doesn&#8217;t take itself too seriously, or the subject for that matter.
