        Fletcher Munson: Hello!

        Neighbor: Hello.

        Fletcher Munson: How are you?

        Neighbor: Fine.

        Fletcher Munson: Is your wife coming over tonight? Because her big ass always leaves me satisfied.

        Neighbor: Nice of you to mention her. She enjoys sex with you much more than she does with me.

        Fletcher Munson: I'm sure she says that to all the men in the neighborhood.

        Neighbor: You may be right about that one.

        Fletcher Munson: I'll see you later.

        Neighbor: Okay.

      10/10
      This is one of my favourite films of all time for a reason.
      The reason is it is absolutely brilliant. In need of artistic renewal, Steven Soderbergh threw everything he could think of into this self-financed feature and the results are scattershot, inscrutable, unfathomable and -- above all else -- hilarious. Veering from biting social commentary to clever wordplay to a withering parody of Scientology, this film isn't the sort of thing one should rent unless you want to give your brain a workout.

      Soderbergh has said that this was his attempt to pay homage to the "freewheeling" style of Richard Lester. Whether he achieves that or not is open to debate, but he certainly managed to create a one-of-a-kind film experience. Too bad few people ever got the chance to see it on the big screen.

      In the immortal words of Elmo Oxygen: "I believe -- so strongly -- in mayonnaise." Words to live by. I know I do.
