Better Late Then Never

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Blistering performances.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

A stunning performance by Paul Dano and a very believable by Zooey Deschannel. Some might say bits of this film are mundane and were not needed, but that's what makes this film a sensation, to be able to relate to these so called scenes can in fact bring you deeper into the film.However, my only criticism would be the ending, I think it leaves us wondering about too many things.Overall, this is a great film which explores the life of a salesman with a very unique life, not seen very much in many films these days, who falls in love with a customer who leads a very strange life too. The violent attacks by an unknown figure played by Zach Galifianakis make the film more mysterious and makes the viewer curious to who this figure is.All in all a fine film.

A film can be a well intentioned disaster. A true turkey may still exude sincerity. Hard work and serious thought can be evident despite descent into a cinematic mess. A movie can be terrible without me taking it personally. But I can count on one hand the number of films that I have seen that did not have any right to be made. GIGANTIC is one of them.If glib means showing little forethought or preparation, lacking depth and substance, being superficial; if pretension is making unjustified or excessive claims of value or standing; if facetious means jesting in a clumsy or inappropriate manner, then GIGANTIC's poster should appear next to the dictionary entries for each such word.Misters Nagata and Aselton appear to believe that every idea they have is clever and that throwing together a few dozen such ideas, be they subplots, humor vehicles or inane bits of dialog, is homework enough. The two share the delusion their audience is embracing their work with subtle understanding. They mistake confusion as nuance or ambiguity. Just what was it that suggested to Adam and Matt that, in this instance, they had the material and ingenuity enough to create something remotely approaching a feature length film? Dano still manages to shine. Goodman and Asner are still funny. Deschanel cannot act. Never could. After over a hundred IMDb User Comments I've only seen fit to enter two or three as scathing as this one and I get trashed every time. Could not stop myself. GIGANTIC compels me so.

I am going to keep this short because there is not much to say about this movie. This movie Is like taking sleeping pills. It is the most boring and incomplete movie I can ever remember. Do not waist your money on this movie because you will feel like you have been robbed.As for Zooey Deschanel. I think she is a great up and coming actress and she did not need to be affiliated with movie like this, She is just too good for this movie and that goes the same with some of the other actors that played in it as well. I really hope she will get the chance to play much better roles in much better movies in the future. She was first rate in Yes Man and she can do much better if given the chance....

I can't really say this movie has anything to recommend it as entertainment. There isn't a cohesive plot - there are a lot of scenes that are just "there" but you wonder why? The characters are all very flat - little to no development. I couldn't get interested in any of them, which is unusual. There was no comedy and no romance in this movie for me. There isn't really any compelling action, and most of the camera work is ordinary - nothing interesting there to hold your attention. Sometimes a movie like this is saved by brilliant dialogue and scriptwriting - not this one, the script is average and the delivery flat. No one seems to care very much. There are a couple of scenes with violence, which to our family were disturbingly gratuitous - the violence just happened without any reason, or explanation afterwards. The consequences of the violence seemed way too small considering what was depicted as happening, which was also disturbing.
