Review of Anomalisa (2015) by Jerry L — 08 Feb 2016

My wife and I (both over 60) are usually tolerant of off-beat films, but Anomalisa caught us off guard. We walked out, thinking, "what the hell was that all about?" HOWEVER, for the next couple of hours we found ourselves discussing what we'd just seen.

I can't remember too many films that evoked that much discussion. We are, however, shocked that Anomalisa is pitted against INSIDE OUT for Best Animated Feature Length Film at the Oscars: we absolutely loved INSIDE OUT: Anomalisa; not so much.
