Me, You and Everyone We Know - 3.5
Hey look, it's a multiple perspective non-thriller made by, for and about art-school students of all ages! Now, I'm as arty as anyone who has no artistic ability. I listen to weird music that 99% of the general public has never heard of. I've seen every episode of Six Feet Under, and I kind of liked Claire most of the time. Hell, I've got a blog that no-one reads that I update regularly. On a scale of 1-10 in artsy, I've got to be a 7+, and I still couldn't identify with a single person in this movie. Not the run-of-the-mill artsy old-person cab driver Not the guy who lights his hand on fire for no good reason. Not the horny underage bisexuals. Not the kid who gets to judge a blowjob contest between the 2 horny underage bisexuals nor the guy trying to seduce them. Not the little girl who is buying blenders for her dowry. And even though he is freakin' hilarious, I can't even really see where the 7-year old who is obsessed with "pooping back and forth" (don't even ask) is coming from. I don't mind that the movie is weird, some of my favorite movies are extremely weird. I just think that the characters, at their bizarre core, are boring. I was playing sudoku (further proof that I am artsy, I might add) 2/3rds of the way through the movie, and the movie is only an hour and a half long. The movie isn't poorly made or anything; it just didn't do anything for me.
