Review of Mister Lonely (2008) by Dawdlingpoet — 26 Nov 2021

I feel like this is quite a good film but its just so surreal/quirky/bizarre that it's not a film I imagine everyone can/will enjoy but its not a bad film either. I'm sort of on the fence about it as some scenes I thought were quite good and plot wise it has a quite interesting storyline but it is one of those films which, having finished seeing it, I'm left wondering what I'm meant to take away from it.

It is somewhat philosophical I guess, perhaps making you think about self identity, how we choose to run away from our humdrum lives and so on. Its a little too bizarre for me but it does work on one level or two.

It won't appeal to everyone but I guess if it sounds of interest, then it may be worth seeing, yes.
