Strange little film that definitely could've gone on a bit longer just to add more narrative information (the how's and why's of this alternate reality world) but otherwise it was a very enjoyable crazy little film. Shout out to Tyler Labine doing a solid impression or really a mash up of the various faces of VICE magazine circa 2000. He was equal parts charismatic, and dispicable, pivoting from one pole to the next so you never really hated him but also didn't really love him. Just a drunken, drug fueled mess obsessed with gonzo journalism! Definitely one of those arty movies that people either enjoy to some degree, or don't like it at all.

Trippy, but not in the fun way This movie trips over its own shoes most of the time, and fails to connect with its characters and its narrative. It therefore drags, becomes disjointed, and simply not very enjoyable. Its central narrative could be interesting, but it is mishandled, I think, and it is not worth your time. I think you can do better.
