Morgan M @morganhmcd Aug 16 Very thoughtful movie. I would call it a psychological drama. It is very impressive how the master has this dichotomy of being incredibly manipulative while showing love and kindness. Joaquin Phoenix is incredibly lonely and vulnerable, I felt sorrow for him throughout the film.

Joaquin drinks so much moonshine he starts humping a naked women carved from sand on a beach, and that's like in the first few minutes of the movie. He then graduates from that, to jerking off facing the ocean with soldiers just chilling out around him. Kinda reminded me of a dude I knew in high school who did something similar after doing too many bucket bongs. Philip Seymour Hoffman wasn't better, as he ended up having tourettes and called some dude a "PIG F@#K" then was JO'd by his Mrs whilst looking at himself in a mirror. He took like 30 seconds to bust which was crazy. Overall the movie was fantastic as far at Paul Thomas Anderson films go. It really spoke to my soul, especially the self pleasuring part, and getting JO'd by a girlfriend. See more S.

See more Michael A @Kinich61 May 13 Paul Thomas Anderson has done it again. He always creates such compelling and complex flims. See more andrea C @Charst Apr 13 Film che porta in dote una delle trame più complesse ed originali degli ultimi anni se si parla di prodotti per la grande produzione. Non si può dire che il film sia accessibile a tutti perchè effettivamente si fatica davvero a comprendere la spinta e la posizione di alcuni personaggi soprattutto secondari. Ad elevare il film ci pensa l'incredibile cast che con performance eccelse convogliano tutta l'attenzione sugli sguardi, sui dialoghi e sulle reazioni imprevedibili che si susseguono lungo tutta la durata della pellicola. Il finale non lascia del tutto soddisfatti in quanto spegne un po' quella frizzantezza data dall'imprevedibilità. Phoenix ed Hoffmann sono semplicemente fantastici. See more Read all reviews
