Sadly Over-hyped
Awesome Movie
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

View MoreThe freakiest funny animated movie ever. Plympton is whacked. I have seen his shorts, but this takes the cake. What a hoot. It has no redeeming value. It just makes you laugh. Total absurdity at it's finest. If you hate this, feel sorry for your comedic side. You at least have to appreciate the animation. Plot aside, or plot against, just too creative for words. If you like Monty Python's animation, you'll love this.
View MoreAfter newlywed businessman Grant Boyer is electrocuted by his satelite dish, he develops a strange lump on the back of his neck that gives him the power to bring his crazy thoughts and fantasies into reality. Of course, since this is a Plympton film, you can safely assume that this is merely an excuse to load the movie with lots of blood, sex, talking animals, bulging eyeballs, and more detached limbs than you can count. While extremely imaginative, well-animated, and generally fun to watch, the film runs its course within the first half-hour or so. Plympton is an amazing artist, but his art is best viewed in short-film form.
View MoreI feel sorry for the people that said they were bored during this movie and that was the only thing they had to say about it. This movie was a wonderful fantasy in which Plympton used the animated media to its highest potential. This movie does have something to offend just about everyone, from extreme profanity, extreme violence, to bizarre (but funny) sex scenes to quoting Hermann Goring?? The bird sex scene in the opening probably did a good job offending most of the population and let you know there was a really raunchy good time ahead; the facial expressions were great! Another great part to look for is when one character watches the "How To Make Love To A Woman" video. There was one segment I rewound the tape three times and STILL couldn't hear what was said because I was laughing SO HARD! WONderful movie and such an improvement over "The Tune".
View MoreI watched this movie with my sister last night on Cinemax and I must say this was absolutely brilliant! I am a big fan of Bill Plymptons animation which can be seen on Cartoon Sushi on MTV. OK it starts off with two birds having sex (which right there tells you that this movie is gonna be hilarious). The movie itself is about a guy with some kind of object lodged in the back of his neck that gives him all these crazy powers, and the government is trying to find him. Not only does this movie have a lot of funny sex scenes. It also has a lot of gratuitous violence, with brains and c**p coming out of peoples bodies. Bill Plympton is the master of animated violence. I recommend that everybody see this movie. It's so hilarious that you'll be laughing at it for days to come. Oh yeah the little songs in it are cute too
