Man of the Year is the film of the year!

This is one unique movie. The use of split screens throughout makes for non stop action that keeps the viewer's eyes glued to the screen. An interesting premise that's fully realized. It's truly unbelievable that the entire dialogue was improvised...it sounds as if it was shot from a script. The actors are uniformly excellent. Hats off to John Ritter for a sensitive, groundbreaking performance. And Lin Shaye is laugh-out-loud funny, too.

extremely engaging from start to finish

I thought the unique format would be distracting but it added to the character development and to the complexity of the story. Really good movie. Entirely satisfying. Ritter was great. The film had a 'real' and spontaneous feel to it.

Man of the Year is a Slamdunk

I just saw Man of the Year in Park City. Wow. Despite its obvious budgetary restrictions, this movie more than makes up for it in its unique editing style, fun and interesting story and memorable characters. John Ritter as Bill is a real head turner...one of his best characterizations ever. Up there with Slingblade. This film has real theatrical potential. The audience really went for it. Lots of laughter at first, but the film gradually turns, with some interesting twists. Well worth it.

Innovative = Garbage

Interesting how every comment to date (and not many at that) is ridiculously positive about this movie.

What is to like? Short answer: nothing at all. A bunch of web cams installed at a boring party would produce the same as this effort.

There is a LOT of drinking in this movie. Personally I don't drink and don't admire those that do. Alcohol is the stupid drug and this movie is proof.

The movie is unedited, people -- completely without editing. The Sundancers call this innovative. You decide.

I think editing is probably the most unappreciated aspect of a movie. We all know that we need a good story, good acting, good directing, good photography and music that compliments all of these. But without editing you still end up with a steaming pile of cow dung.

This one steams. Avoid if you can.

a wonderfully innovative & astonishing achievement in filmmaking

Just saw this movie at Sundance -- what a cool idea! I can't believe they made this movie in just one night with 20 cameras & no script -- it's awesome! Great cast, great performances -- lots of laughs -- really fun to watch --

Reg: I thought you had given up gambling.
Bill: I did, except this one. I thought it was a sure thing, and it would've been, but there were some injuries. We had a big shoulder problem from the starting pitcher. And I thought that...
Reg: Your gambling on baseball? What are you, stupid?
Bill: Well, you know man, I know it's not polo, but fuck, it's America's past time.
