I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore.

Started a bit slow, and it seemed like it was trying too hard with the so-called cringe humor. I still enjoyed the photography, editing and music even though I wasn't impressed with the plot. Then things changed dramatically for the better. One thing I noticed towards the ending was the similarities with "The Shining" (1980) both in set and music. Might have been wishful thinking but my I'm pretty sure there's a bit of a reference there.

Fantastic acting, I didn't realise the main character was played by the "Heavenly Creatures" (1994) actress. Never really seen her "black, beautiful little eyes" since then, but her average mid-thirties woman looks were very refreshing for a leading character in a motion picture. Elijah Wood always delivers of course, he was hilarious as a very specific loser type.

Overall a very, very good dark comedy with existential overtones, nice plot turns and a great atmosphere. Loved it.

Loved this film! Melanie Lynskey does a great job as depressed nurse with a penchant for justice who unwillingly becomes a vigilante. Elijah Wood is hilarious as her sidekick. The story is absurd and fast-paced. Cinematography is spot-on, with camera-work and colors that create a moody, slightly surreal atmosphere. And all throughout the movie breathes with life and love for its wonderful characters.

You gotta be able to withstand some violence though—there definitely is some in here. To me, the violence felt natural and was still humorous enough not to be overly shocking, reminiscent of movies such as Super and Kick Ass. So, go and watch this cute little gem!

No matter what the genre line says, this is a black comedy and a good one at that.The acting is spot on and sometimes especially in the later parts of the film a little over the top but it does add to where the story is going at the time and fits very well.

I think I can count on one hand the amount of movies lately that have made me laugh out loud, thankfully this one had me on more than one occasion.

Obviously the director is a Coen bros fan, it has touches of Fargoish mundane reality mixed with comedic gore filled violence.

The soundtrack was effortless and complimented the mood of each particular part of the movie.

Overall a good watch and not overly long or drawn out so 9/10.

Truly enjoyable hidden gem on Netflix. An unassuming lead who represents everyone of us in a way that no Hollywood regulars ever could, in a great performance. Elijah Wood in a messed up artsy role. Unique, DARK but often hilarious film. A weirdly entertaining and familiar tale. Entertaining from beginning to end, with no breaks, in my opinion. Excellent film that performs way beyond the statistics!

The bad: some loopholes in the plot irritated me. And there are some unnatural editing jumps in the story. Elijah Wood's character isnt very convincing. But besides these 3 minor flaws this is an enjoyable black comedy.

The good: what is particular funny is the "snowball effect" of the story. It starts out with a woman's small frustration that the police wont retrieve her stolen notebook for her, when she knows the exact adress where her notebook is residing, because of a gps tracker. She decides to take the law into her own hands and asks her neighbour Elijah Wood to help her retrieve her notebook. After that things start spiralling out of control quickly in an amusing way.

Funny and quirky "out of control" story. Great acting performance by Melanie Lynskey, who plays the part of the "sweet" lady, who wont take the injustice any more. She is true to life in her acting, which lift this black comedy up to an enjoyable level, which it wouldnt have been, if this over the top story had been portrayed in a farcical way.

I need credibility, even in a comedy, to enjoy a movie better. And however weird this story might seem, one could imagine, (up to a certain point), that things really got out of hand, the way it is being portrayed here.

In the end this story unfortunately does become somewhat farcical, yet it was still suspenseful and funny enough to watch it through to the end.

Nice black comedy, with a few minor flaws.
