What did you think of the movie I Heart Huckabees?

[Descartes]

I never even heard about it, but I caught it on HBO this morning. I'll forever appreciate Jason Schwartzman for Rushmore, but I LMAO at this movie.

What's the ATOT collective think?

I caught the last half of the movie, and even though i didnt know what was going on i thought it was good. Id like to see it from the beginning.

I thought it was OK, but overrated. It felt like a slightly uninspired copy of a Charlie Kaufman movie. Adaptation, for example, is ten times the movie IMO. It would certainly help if they hadn't hired Marky Mark - I can't stand that guy.

What about a "never watched it" option? I've heard of it, just never saw it.

How could you not like Mark Wahlberg in that movie? He made that movie awesome. At first I thought the movie was ok when I saw it in the theater, but I've watched it a couple more times on HBO and I totally love it.

Done.

I've watched it two or three times now, I thought it was a great movie. But in terms of weird...who's seen "Me and You and Everyone We Know"? (The movie where "pooping back and forth" comes from)

How could you hate a guy with a line like "I'm going to go to a deeper and darker place, and i'm not taking you guys with me." and "baby, there are little girls just like you going blind making mommy's shoes.. do you like that?" stuff like that.

I loved Huckabees, bought it the day it came out on DVD, saw it in theaters, was great stuff

I honestly just don't like him in any context. He's always struck me as an arrogant, untalented ass, but what sealed the deal was his work in that dreadful Tim Burton remake of Planet of the Apes. If there's a worse movie than that one, I've never seen it.

There are plenty of worse movies out there, for example, Undead, and Australian zombie movie that is an extremely poor attempt at comedy. Usually, I'll stick with a book or movie to the very end, but I suffered getting through 15 minutes, gave it up at the 30 minute mark.

Yup, very unique I thought. Weird, but fun, interesting and entertaining.

Give Mark Wahlberg a break, he's just an actor, if the movie is bad it's mostly due to the script, director, or the person watching is jealous of the actor.

After all, the director directs the actor, hopefully. IMO Wahlberg did a great job in I :heart: Huckabees.
