Holy shit, this was amazing - one of the most original and creative movies I've seen in years.
Harry Potter being used like a farting jet ski
I went into this after watching the trailer expecting a low grade comedy, but they really did a great job to make this unique and surprising right till the end.
The jet ski scene was only about 5 minutes into the movie, and it only got weirder from there.
Even the website is awesome, but a bit of a stresstest for an overloaded browser - swissarmyman.com.
I don't want to give away too much, but this turned out to be far deeper (and funnier) then I expected. With a unique premise, they spun a tale about human psychology and needs that keeps you guessing about the nature of this reality untill the very end.
This is the description from itunes:
Hank (Paul Dano) is stranded on a deserted island, having given up all hope of ever making it home again. But one day everything changes when a corpse named Manny (Daniel Radcliffe) washes up on shore; the two become fast friends, and ultimately go on an epic adventure that will bring Hank back to the woman of his dreams. Outrageously fun and deeply affecting, Swiss Army Man is a gonzo buddy comedy that is the feature film debut of acclaimed music video directors Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan (collectively known as DANIELS, and responsible for the visionary “Turn Down For What” video, among many others). Bursting with limitless creativity in both form and content, Swiss Army Man goes from the absurd to the emotional to the whimsical to the profound and back again.
Official Trailer
- I rate this movie 8 cheese puffs out of 10
- More info, ratings and reviews : IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Wikipedia
- The only option to legally "purchase" this movie I can find is via itunes for 14.99USD (With DRM)
It's a real shame that a DRM locked version on itunes is the only legal option to purchase such an awesome movie.
On a totally unrelated note I'd like to end this post with some lyrics:
Water, fire, air and dirt
Fucking magnets, how do they work?
And I don’t wanna talk to a scientist
Y’all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed.
~ Insane Clown Posse, Miracles (2009)
