Swiss Army Man Review

Once in a while you watch a film that leaves a lasting impression on you.  Sometimes you see a trailer to a film and you know it's going to be great.  It strikes a chord in you even from a 2 minute preview.  When I saw the trailer for this film it spoke to me.  In the days of sequel after sequel and rehashing of old stories it's nice to see something "different".  This movie is very different.



Hopefully you watched the trailer above and have a faint idea about what this film is about.  The film stars the amazing actor Paul Dano as Hank.  Hank has some issues.  Hank is lost in the wilderness and his only friend is a corpse, Manny, played by Daniel Radcliffe.  We don't know where Manny came from but we know that these 2 become best friends.  You may wonder how a guy becomes best friends with a dead body?  Good question!

Well, you see, Manny begins to become alive.  Hank finds out through out this process that he can use Manny and his body to try and escape this wilderness.  In this Hank teaches Manny about life and the pitfalls and the happiness of what makes us human.  About love, anger, sadness and not farthing in front of other people.  Their is a lot of farting in this movie.  The film is so unique and quirky.  The acting alone of both of these actors is absolutely amazing.  I hope they get nominated for their performances.





Think Castaway.  Think about the craziest film you've seen to date and it probably doesn't compare to Swiss Army Man.  I can't say enough about Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe.  These guys are top notch and what a pleasure to watch them put on such an amazing performance.  I highly recommend this film!
