PT Anderson is brilliant. Aside from the stupid laughs from Billy Madison, this is the only worthwhile film that Adam Sandler has ever done. |

There Will Be Punch...a movie that's too weird for its own good. You liked it? Good. Too bad I can't say the same thing. |

Not typical Sandler, that's for sure. Sandler is excellent, what I have a problem with is the story. I didn't like it at all. Other than the interesting bit with the pudding, I thought it was a muddled mess. Too slow and depressing for me. |

Surprisingly this could be Sandler's best acting gig ever. He does a really good job playing a man that has mental issues. It is actually a sweet story once the director gets down to it - it can be funny, too. Sandler fans may be let down. |

If you haven't seen any other P.T. Anderson work, this is the one to start with for the sole reason that it is his worst. I saw "Magnolia" and "Boogie Nights" prior to this and therefore found this one lacking in a lot of places that Anderson hadn't yet developed. Sure, he had his acting and dialogue formations down pat, but his way of tying in all of his elements didn't really come about til "Boogie Nights" and then were mastered in "Magnolia." However, "Punch-Drunk Love" was a masterpiece of dramedy by one of the foremost cinematic visionaries this century. |

Depressed Sandler is a good actor |
|
Sandler is very good in this. I feel like PT is just trying to show how artistic and visionary he can be. He does a good job with Sandler's character but more depth in his surroundings and memorable and quirky dialogue would have helped blend the plot and the style. The pudding subplot does a good job of that but this is less of a story and more of an artistic thought. But a good artistic thought with not enough depth. I always have to give kudos to a romantic comedy that isn't formulaic and this is the furthest thing imaginable from formulaic. |
