I just got back from this movie and I thought I would share my opinion of it. I really enjoyed this flick. It is witty, quirky and very well done. I would highly recomend it.
I tend to go for more eclectic, slightly off comedies. Films like "Office Space" and "Top Secret" really hit my funnybone. I would suspcet that people who do not care for those kinds of movies would not like this one either.
Matt Damon does a fine job. I don't know what good acting really is, I'm not a fine arts grad; but if I can tell someone is acting its probably bad.
The story is very well told and is an interesting one to boot. I loved the music. They use what sounds like either 'elevator music' or 70's gameshow'eque themes to highlight otherwise serious scenes. I found it to be a brilliant contrast.
There are no side-bursting moments like in "Something about Marry", the scene with the dog and the lampcord almost put me in the hospital. The comedy is very dry, witty and subtle.
