I loved this movie.
P.T. Anderson has hit a nerve. I walked out of this film feeling much like i had seen my own life on the big screen, I was feeling overwhelmed by what i had seen. Its a disturbing feeling when you feel the character as much as i did. All those people who found it such a bad movie maybe never took into consideration the fact that there are people like this out there, this alone makes this story all the better. I actually went to watch this thinking it was going to be a lighthearted comedy starring adam sandler (the way he fell into his role was astonishing), i was wrong but very pleasantly surprised by what i saw.
If you want "Little Nicky" or "Billy Madison", stay out of the theater while this one runs, but if you want something different and darkly beautiful, almost surreal, 8.50 could not be better spent.
A trainwreck with few survivors, but how greatful are those that made it through safely.
