Lame ass attempt at the horror genre. Or was it another genre, and I just don't know it? What the film saved in costs for the small cast and cheap production, it could have spent on some decent writing. Maybe at some point it would have been good to let the audience know some sense of Why. Felt like an amalgamation of 5 or 6 other stupid "scary" movies, just cheaper. Peeeeee yeeewwwq

Classic, master filmaking skills on display !!

Dinklage is the new Clint Eastwood ( yeah, I said it...), or rather, the new anti-hero. A general dislike for people, a broader disdain for humanity, he eventually redeems us all with his reluctant yet desperate actions while begrudgingly befriending a fellow survivor. Despite dialogue so bland it authored 2 short naps, Fanning was compelling even as she remained a full mystery throughout. I think the setting was charming for once, but the post-apocalyptic theme needs more fresh blood than that. Overall, not unhappy watched it.© Mrm

It really is a channeling of a few movies, where they seem to have distilled a blend of Weekend at Bernies, Ghost, and Castaway, and ensconced the essence of Brokeback Mountain during every pause in dialogue where the protagonists stare all over and at each other. Unlike, say The Black Panther, where they introduce the never before heard of vibranium to explain the powers and magical strengths on display, and somehow you willingly accept it and can enjoy the movie, Swiss Army Man just doesn't reel me in with its literary hook, and utterly fails to give me a way to come up with my own device. In the end, I laughed some, reflected on human nature a little less, and felt spiritually moved not at all.
