I expected a quirky movie, but sometimes movies are too self-consciously quirky, and this is a good example. It feels like the writer, producer and director are trying too hard to be out-there. This is a hard movie to love.However, the cast is excellent, and it is always a pleasure to watch good actors practice their craft. Amy Adams has the meatiest part and is the only character who really gets developed. I gave the movie an extra star based on the performances.One word of warning: if you are in the habit of watching movies during meals (as I am), save this one for another time. There's some pretty gross stuff onscreen.
