Swiss Army Man



I went to see this movie last night with a friend. It was quite controversial when first released, because some people walked out in the first 10 minutes, thinking it was just a juvenile buddy movie, with a corpse and fart jokes. It's much more that that. It's really about love, and how people save each other from living loveless lives. It's funny, scary, gross and touching. Paul Dano is wonderful, and Daniel Radcliffe plays the corpse, a corpse that learns to be alive, a corpse that saves his friend. Very unusual and very thought-provoking.

  1. Not a movie I had heard of (unsurprising because I am largely out of the movie loop). It sounds quirky and valuable. Thank you.
