6 as well!

I might watch it again at some point, but honestly the main thing I thought while watching was how much I'd love to read the book, just imagining this whole self hating, self aggrandizing bullshit in the first person the whole time. I'm sure its terrible but in this case thats what would make it great

Voted 7 and very soon after regretted it and wish I picked 6. Going with 6 officially. It was like a 6.5 for me

It was prettyyyy fine overall. Rockwell really warranted that extra point from me. He's one of my favorites and he carried this for sure, without him this movie would not be worthwhile

Directing wise Clooney did fine. I didn't like the way some of the movie looked at all tho, like that weird effect on flashbacks. Not a big fan

Overall won't leave a big impact on me but I had fun watching it. I laughed throughout thanks mostly to Rockwell

Could definitely tell it was written by Kaufman

I loved the last line:
"I came up with a new game-show idea recently. It's called The Old Game. You got three old guys with loaded guns onstage. They look back at their lives, see who they were, what they accomplished, how close they came to realizing their dreams. The winner is the one who doesn't blow his brains out. He gets a refrigerator."

I loved the gong show when I was a kid. This movie was ok. Kind of slow but funny at times. I think I gave it a five.

also this makes me sad

Quote
I was upset by the fact that Clooney took the movie from me and then cut me out after that. I'm unhappy with the end result. And I'm unhappy with George Clooney. I had a movie that I wrote and that isn't it. I've always been involved in the process with Spike Jonze and Michel Gondry. If there's any rewriting to do, I do it. But with Clooney it was different; even the end of the movie is different. I mean, Clooney went on forever about how my Confessions screenplay was one of the greatest scripts he'd read. But if someone truthfully felt that way they'd want the person who wrote it to be on board offering their thoughts and criticisms. But Clooney didn't. And I think it's a silly way to be a director.

Finally finished. Only took 2.5 weeks


Wasn’t awful but wasn’t good. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone and the twist was easily seen a mile away. Just wasn’t that good
