Review

 

Ever wanted to be someone else? Now you can.

While between jobs, master puppeteer Craig Schwartz (John Cusack) takes a job as a filing clerk in an office building in New York City. One day, he discovers a strange door behind a filing cabinet, a door which takes him into the mind of John Malkovich for 15 minutes then dumps him out on the side of the New Jersey Turnpike. But what can one do with such a portal? Soon Craig is telling others, sharing this unique experience. For an admission fee, perhaps.

This is one of my favourite films of all time. A few of my friends who I have lent the film too have disagreed but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Its unusual and obscure but its fantastic. Buy it now.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars In the wake of brilliance.

Being John Malkovich is a superbly original and thought provoking classic. This previously overseen gem to me has recently entered my life as one of my top ten favourite films.
The movie is held together by an excellent cast of accomplished actors and gifted crew that does nothing but compliment Charlie Kaufman's achievement in writing 'Being John Malkovich'.
In addition to the excellent script, Spike Jonze's direction has exceeded in places otherwise thought unachievable by him and surpassed my prejudiced expectations of diversely fresh material for a movie.
An excellent movie and definitely worth buying at only £4.99.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Weirdly Wonderful

This must be one of the most bizarre, weird, amazingly unique films I've seen. The puppeteer who starts with beautifully choreographed mannequins and ends up operating from inside someones mind. It is a mindblowing concept, I was totally engrossed from beginning to end.
