    ★★★★

    A remarkably unremarkable film, with unlikeable characters and a story that’s unrelatable in today’s political/economic climate. Even its smooth jazz soundtrack comes off as if it was made by aliens tasked with replicating the ideal human experience without trying too hard. 

    That said, the movie has its charms. Paul Giamatti and Thomas Hayden Chirch are perfectly—PERFECTLY—cast, there’s some good jokes in there, and the aforementioned soundtrack is perfectly-suited for these two genuine shitheads traipsing around California wine country.

    I usually don’t like this phrase… but, truly, what the fuck did I just watch? Other than an example of animation unleashing its full potential? Shinya Ohira seems to channel both Katamari Damacy and David Lynch in this… and let it be noted: I believe very few people do “dream logic” well. This is 15 minutes. Watch it.

    A cool movie. It is WILD how it managed to make me feel, given some of the animals are animated like a Pixar Short from 1995. There were moments of uplift, and of deep dread. Worth seeing.
