Storytelling

"You had a bad time? Well too bad!"

1 Star

Along the same line as Happiness, but with one large difference...Happiness was good! Yuck, I hated this movie. Because I rated Happiness so high on Netflix they recommended this one to me over and over and I finally gave in. I knew I was ignoring it for a reason.

The beginning Selma Blair story was just pure shock, and literally made me queasy with disgust. No wonder why The Howard Stern Show plays this sound byte from time to time. Really offencive.

The begging credits showed Bell and Sebastian as the main music direction. That should have tipped me off that this movie was going to stink.

The second story starring Paul Giamatti is so tedious, and you can tell the film is trying to make some "comment" on society (another word I don't like). I found it just stupid.

Don't waste your time. If you want and "edgy" movie with real dark, dark humor...go Happiness.
You'll be glad you did.
