MCT:October 31, 2007A cerebral romance with wonderful performances from Ed Norton, Evan Rachel Wood, Rory Culkin, & David Morse.

I'm having trouble thinking of anything I want to say about this movie. I'll give it a shot tomorrow.
TOMORROW: ...Nope. Still nothing. The movie was more interesting than this - why can't I formulate anything to say about it? I guess Edward Norton is pretty damn good as always but why are his characters always so violent? Also, I didn't know Evan Rachel Wood could act. I thought she was just kind of floating around Hollywood, being pretty.
Shady ending - especially the last minute or so. As everyone has said, it starts off stronger than it finishes. Norton really sells that love junk in the first act; it's treacle so thick that it could only come from a knight of the Ol' West, and the fact that he can make it work says something about his performance on several levels. You'd know what I mean if you saw it.
I think we need more movies like this - interesting genre-bending explorations of mental illness - but it would help if they were better. -

"Starts as a 10, ends as a 1" is a commonly used quote for this movie... and they're right. For the first 40 minutes or so, it's a masterpiece on psychological indie film with larger-than-life performances by Norton and the great Evan Rachel Wood along with a nice role for a grown-up Rory Culkin... but after a while, it starts going down into a spiral of melodramatic performances and stupid situations (Norton on acid?!)... or was it a surreal film? I never figured it out but it was a disappointment for what looked like a masterpiece to me... lucky for me, Evan
Rachel Wood will marry me no matter what! :-) -
MCT:January 1, 2009A strange film, seemingly unaware of it's own odd plot. But Norton's character is fascinating, and he plays it extremelly well. I liked this one a lot. Reminiscent a bit of Kill Bill Vol 2.
