"What if you wished everyone - and everything - would just go away!"

Nothing (2003)
Directed by Vincenzo Natali, rated R, 90 minutes

Nothing is a clever and original sci-fi comedy about two loners with nothing going for them in their lives who wish everything would go away, and oddly enough everything outside their house disappears. David Hewlett and Andrew Miller do an admirable job carrying the film as really the only two characters, but they're given some hilarious dialogue. The premise is intriguing, but the execution is surprisingly impressive, building a quirky and truly interesting story on what could have become boring. Nothing is a refreshingly out-there film, that's as funny as is it is fascinating. You'll like it if: You like weird films, sci-fi comedies, David Hewlett, Cube, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or The Family Man.
