Absolutely fantastic. So funny.

You laugh as your friend accidentally falls into a seemingly bottomless pit. Then the laughter grows quiet as you realize you're the only left, your flashlight is out, and you still have to make quota. One of the greatest multiplayer games I've experienced in a loooong time. It's so simple and so original.

Hello, I'm a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. I write this review anonymously because it could put into peril my membership. This is, without a doubt, the most intense cinematic experience I've ever experienced, and I've experienced many. I voted for it to be nominated for best animated feature in 2009 but, of course, the typical Academy member couldn't comprehend its genius. At first, I couldn't either. Yet, after my first viewing, scenes stuck with me and wouldn't let go for weeks. It was only after I watched it again, and then one more time for good measure, that its true purpose enveloped me. To this day, it hasn't let go. In 2014, I actually visited the clock that inspired this film (its in Praha [that's Prague for you laymen]) and met many other international visitors who were there for the same reason. We all smiled, laughed, and yes, a couple of tears were shed (not by me; I enjoy movies but not that much) by the people in my company. We quoted the film, shared some laughs, and I think at least one or two of the people I was with went off to spend the night at a goat farm. Anyways, share this film with your entire family.
