"Swiss Army Man" finds a way to twist its juvenile sense of humor into a weirdly existential buddy comedy.

This is my favorite film of 2016! No movie hit me as hard as this one, and as weird and crude as it can get, it never loses sight of the underlying message, which by the way isn't told, but oh so vividly shown throughout. A strong 3.5 out of 4.

Unusual, entertaining, and sometimes thoughtful for the first 90% or so. Could be said to be low-brow, but that's a low-brow sort of thing to say in a review and betrays a dismissive perspective that is, at best, already unwilling to experience the thing without unconscious prejudice. I liked it, anyways. Found myself really laughing a couple of times. Eventually you get to the last 10%, at which point the feeling that the script is unravelling and the filmmakers have lost control may begin to set in. I say rest assured this is not the case. Make it through the last 10%. Stick with it. I am writing this 24 hours after seeing it. The whole thing fits together very nicely.

I want to give some extra points for daring to take weird creative risks... This movie definitely does that. Unfortunately the result is by turns maudlin, twee, and gross. I can imagine everyone involved reading the script and thinking "wow, that's not something I see every day". On the other hand, maybe there's a reason for that? Other than the premise, there's nothing particularly striking or exciting about this movie -- it's not visually interesting, the dialogue is banal, the soundtrack blandly inoffensive. It turns out, there's more to movie-making than a strikingly original idea.
