Such a frustrating disappointment

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

What did I just watch. More than brazzar. Right up they with Eraser Head.

I'm so glad I finally watched this. What a wonderfully odd movie. Paul Dano & Daniel Radcliffe both give grade A top-notch performances. There's so much heart to this film, something I was rather shocked by. I found myself laughing out loud during several scenes at the comical, albeit crude absurdity of the situation and actions of Hank and Manny. Then, there were other scenes where I found myself almost holding back tears at the heartfelt conversations between them. There is a simple, yet relatable loneliness and sadness to Hanks character I think many people can relate to. While it may not be as deeply seeded as his, we've all gone through moments like that in our lives. Times of self-doubt, moments where we don't feel good enough, or attractive enough, or afraid we're going to make an idiot of ourselves for saying or doing the wrong thing. Daniel Radcliffe is fantastic as Manny. There's a childlike curiosity and wonder to his character as he tries to remember life. The same goes for the bluntness and honesty in his responses and questions. At the core, it's a story that says, sometimes we just need a friend to bring out the best in us and show us our lives are more than just what is on the surface. That it's who we are deep down in our beings that counts, that life is too short to not show others how much we care, or to not take chances because of our insecurities and fear. I think that's a beautiful thing when a film can make you feel those emotions and be entertaining at the same time. That's just what this beautifully weird little film managed to do for me. My Rating: 8/10

.. is actually a very good description of this movie. Like many others I imagined it to be some kind of cast away with a corse for the volleyball but it was suprisingly different. At this point you should know that farting is an essential plot device in this movie and that it is actually used to underline it's statements. If you cant get over this fact don't even watch it, because it is very heavily featured.I can't help myself fealing kind of weird recommending this movie because it's just plain akward and even uncomfortable to watch at some instances. The cinematography is very good and the metaphoric value every set build has for the story is strongly admirable. After about thirty minutes of runtime I came to appreciate the movie for what it is. A character study and a reflection of human behavior, traditions, norms and values, which is mostly presented through dialogue between the two characters. Daniel Radcliffe and Paul Dano play they're characters in such an astonishingly believable and sweet way, that you can take them seriously at any time during the movie even though the plot is as ridicoulus as one could imagine. I think this is a piece that many will grow to appreciate after some time and it is definitely going to become a cult classic.

"Swiss Army Man" tells the story of a man who's stranded on a lonely island and in utter desperation when one day a corpse is released on the shore. After a series of bizarre events, he uncovers that his newly won company is actually still alife and now does everything he can to reach civilization and teach his friend about the life in the meantime.The film is quite bizarre and is probably produced to be so. Unfortunately, I didn't really like some of the scenes in which Daniel Radcliffe shows his abilities because they seemed just a bit too much over the top for me and I don't think they really enrichened the movie. Otherwise there are some nice thoughts about life and appreciating the little things woven into the story, that had, in my eyes, gained relevance through a more serious approach.All in all this is somehow unsatisfying because I do think there is a lot of potential but it sometimes gets left behind for a rather cheap joke or a quick laughter.
