Well I rewatched this. I remember the scenes where he loses his mental to be quite compelling and disturbing. On this go around I noticed there was a lot of talk of medication. The personal notes were stupid, almost irrelevant, and that losing your mind might make sense when you come into contact with a higher power.
Drilling into your head might even be rational at a certain stage. I don't find myself filled with curiousity about the problems that he tries to deal with. I don't worry about his friend that dies, or the bad guys that give him computer parts. Mostly I think his neighbor is awesome and cute. Who wouldn't want those samosas. I wish I wrote a review of this when I first saw it. It would be an interesting comparison, then and now.
Well, let's see if Ebert has anything to say.
When you're looking for something that doesn't exist, it makes you crazier the closer you get to it.
But I am thrilled when a man risks his mind in the pursuit of a dangerous obsession. Max is out on a limb.
