Albert (Jason Schwartzman from Rushmore) hires two existential detectives (Dustin Hoffman and Lily Tomlin) to investigate the coincidence of seeing the same stranger three times in one day. The detectives investigate every aspect of his life and Albert begins to question his own existence.
In my opinion, this movie was lame. The acting was alright but only because of Mark Whalberg and Dustin Hoffman as the rest of the performances were just normal. The story was bearable because the mumbo jumbo about the reasons for existence didn't become the focus of the movie, but by the end I was pretty sick of that. It was meant to be a comedy but it just wasn't funny - I think I chuckled twice. It was just utterly boring, wasn't cleaver and not entertaining at all. I was pretty close to walking out and I've only ever done that once before.
