Charlie Kauffman gets even weirder

There is a certain unpenetrable aura in this deep, dense, certainly ambitious cerebral drama from the mind of Charlie Kaufman, whose hand is responsible for Being John Malkovich and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. However, the lack of comedy is most noticable, and the glumness of the writing is much too depressing. The apposite cast are all stranded inside the sad, surreal mind of the writer/director without a guide and the audience simply suffers in frustration as the already enervating script becomes more confounding for no reason. Final Grade: C
