Is this some kind of joke? If so, most of us didn't find it very funny, because we were subjected to an R-rated lengthy treatise on the Etiquette of Farting. Sad-sack actor Paul Dano ("Prisoners") plays a suicidal man, lost in the wilderness. He ends up schlepping a corpse with him. I can't tell you what the corpse does (other than fart) without being accused of sharing spoilers, so...
Writers/directors Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert ("My Best Friend's Wedding") have concocted an unusual twosome which defies all convention (life after life?), convinces us we are witnessing insanity (playing "Let's pretend"), and breaks all natural laws (when and how did he shave?).
The cast:
As the situation becomes more and more bizarre, more and more I found myself disliking it. Making this movie was evidently a blast for the actors. It's too bad they thought their audience would be equally diverted. The R-rated script treated us to whimsy, profanity, insanity and absolutely the most inane, illogical plot I've seen in years. If YOU can make any sense out of it, please tell me what happened!
Full disclosure: One man in the screening audience said he thought it was "funny."
