Reviews
I do not really get the point of this movie. It really looks to me like a big internal joke between Affleck and Phoenix that is extended in time by far too long. I have to praise Phoenix's performance but the character itself is too laughable to be kept for that long. Anyway, an interesting experiment but that could have been shown just in 15min.
