Review of Punch-Drunk Love (2002) by Nelson M — 27 Jun 2012
One of the most surprising Adam Sandler oriented films which show cases his actual talent as an actor. Punch-Drunk Love is one of the more fascinatingly odd romantic comedies where the quirk doesn't take away from the story or the characters at all.
Sandler's Barry Egan is easily one of the more compelling characters, like all of P.T. Anderson's creations, but the story is a touching and sweet tale. And what an honest portrayal of someone with bipolar disorder, it's so refreshing to see that.
Combined with all of this, the film manages to keep a lot of style and flair, with an excellent use of color. Such a wonderful film this is indeed.
