first of joaquin phenix is brillaint in this movie. he is in my view is one of the best actors working today he doesn't just act he is the character and he is facinating to watch like he was in the underrated the master.
but you may need to be on drugs to understand this movie. its a 1970's set movie thats full of drugs weird characters and long naratives. with a great cast.
joaquin plays a druggy private eye . while josh brolin plays a dodgy cop called big foot . josh is really good in this and plays it perfectly as well. one of the best roles ive seen him do.
as for the move its interesting weird slow its like a weird dream drug fulled trip that you feel like your on and have not much idea what is exactly going on. it has dry weird humour quirkness and a very cool sex scene.
but whether you can make much sence of whats going on is another matter.
i enjoyed it though it was a tough watch. . it defentially wont be for everyone but you got to admire the acting and the scenes which are top notch.
also owen wilson in this playing a weird character only adds o the strangnes of it all
