| Enjoyable comedy with original twist |
Will Ferrell stars in this oddball comedy of an IRS tax agent who starts hearing his life narrated, with impending doom.
This kind of reminded me of "The Truman Show", as Will Ferrell's character, alarmed at the prospect of imminent death, starts taking more risks and stops living the boring life he was used to. However, I didn't think Will Ferrell was really in his element on this one. Does anyone really see Will Ferrell as an IRS tax agent?
The film has its moments, and overall, I thought it was good, but there are a lot of better books, movies, etc. out there to see.

| Not my type but very smart film! |
Well, I read the script and watched the film as well.
The movie delivers the script very precisly.
Will did his job very well, even better than the script itself.
Let's say the smartest three film I saw in 21th centuty are 1. Stranger than fiction 2. Eternal sunshine 3. Mamma Mia.
And I want to put this movie at the top of the list.

| Quirky and Touching |
Will Ferrell shines in this quirky and touching movie about a man who hears the voice of a writer who is narrating the story of his life. Ferrell stars as a numbers obsessed IRS employee whose life revolves around a strict schedule that includes waking up at the same time each day, brushing his teeth a set number of times, knowing the number of steps he takes to and from his house, etc. Things suddenly change for him after he starts hearing a voice that narrates his life. What ensues is the slow transformation of a person who had no life to one who starts to live it to the fullest. What makes the movie shine is the interplay between fiction and real life and watching the way Emma Thompson, who plays the hermit-like writer who kills off all of her characters, struggle with what to do with this novel is quite moving. All of the actors do a remarkable job at bringing this fresh script to life and I will be sure to watch this many times in the future. |
