Review of Swiss Army Man (2016) by Carter G — 24 Feb 2017
An original, unique, very special movie. Swiss Army Man will most likely prove too unusual for the average viewer. This film is strange in many, many ways. But if you are able to look past the constant farting and the erections and just how WEIRD the movie is, you'll see a heartwarming tale about friendship, society, and relationships.
It has one of the best openings I've seen in a long time, setting the tone for the rest of the film. It is edited beautifully and has a fabulous score unlike anything I have heard before. Daniel Radcliffe can be quite funny and proves that in Swiss Army Man.
The main problems I had with this movie are that the fart jokes can get very tiresome after a while (and yes, I realize they are a metaphor) and the ending. The ending of the film seems to drag on for a little too long and it feels kind of off.
Swiss Army Man is an incredibly unique and original film, and a great alternative to the bland blockbusters that dominate Hollywood.
