### **Review: *Nothing (2003)*** **Score: 7/10** *Nothing* is a bizarre, philosophically audacious, and surprisingly poignant low-budget Canadian comedy that operates on a premise of pure, surreal logic.

What begins as a juvenile game of erasing annoyances spirals into an existential crisis as their entire reality threatens to vanish into a void of their own making. **What Works Brilliantly:** * **A High-Con
