I Heart Huckabees (2004)Directed by David O. Russell, rated R, 107 minutes
I Heart Huckabees is a quirky and charming comedy about a poet/activist who goes to a pair of "existential detectives" to investigate his coincidental meetings with a tall African man. The film is an ensemble piece (including Dustin Hoffman, Lilly Tomlin, Jude Law, Naomi Watts, Mark Wahlberg and Jason Shwartzman), and each actor gives a great performance, partly thanks to their lovable and funny characters.
The story does a get a little too philosophical in the end, but every moment is filled with exciting visuals, wonderful characters and hilarious dialogue. I Heart Huckabees is an incredibly fun and original cult film, that brilliantly mixes quirky humor with existential philosophy. You'll like it if: You like indie comedies, Wes Anderson's films,
Charlie Kaufman's films, Magnolia or The Royal Tenenbaums.
