Swiss Army Man, where do I start with this one. The concept of this film really threw me for a loop. I did not know whether to think of this as a psychological movie in which Manny is a projection or to take it at face value. This is not a typical film that I would watch, but I am glad I sat down and did. The concept of the film is very unique, I think the Daniels did a great job being creative and original. I just found a lot of it to be pretty absurd.
With the questionable story aside, I really thought that the acting in this film was phenomenal. Daniel Radcliffe and Paul Dano were amazing in this film and really sold this awkward and touching film. The themes explored in this film were very profound: purpose, human nature, and relationships. The Daniels explored these ideas in a very unconventional way and it worked very well. Now would I watch this film again? No, but it was a very well done film and I think it deserves the credit that it has received.
