Critic Reviews
Entertainment Weekly | Lisa SchwarzbaumAdd Critic to Favorites
Darkly funny, twisty-cool existential tragicomedy, loaded with smart notions and filmed like a surrealist dream.Read the full review
Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites
Barthes takes her notion and runs with it, and Giamatti and Strathairn follow fearlessly.Read the full review
USA Today | Claudia PuigAdd Critic to Favorites
The low-key satire would have benefited from more of a back story to Giamatti's character and a clearer sense of his relationship with his wife. But what we do get is compelling in the way of an indelible, dreamy short story.Read the full review

Film: Inventory:Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?: 21+ guest stars that stretched the meaning of "as himself"
10/18/09 Neil Patrick Harris, who, as of 2004, was largely known as "that kid from Doogie Howser, M.D. small TV roles and a respectable stage career weren't doing much to bring him back into the limelight. Then he made a gloriously unselfconscious appearance as himself in Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle —or at least as a drug-addled, sex-obsessed, pantingly assholish Tucker Max-esque version of himself who uses his Doogie fame to pick up strippers. He cannonballs through the film, stealing every scene he's in with comments about tripping balls and craving furburgers. Naturally, he returned for the sequel, in which he explains that the PH in NPH stands for "poon handler." As abrasive as the role was, watching him play savagely against the cutesy innocence of Doogie Howser was comic gold, and it earned him attention in the right places. Within a year, he was co-starring on How I Met Your Mother , and the rest is awards-show-hosting history. 3. | The A.V. Club -
