It gets the stoner comedy reputation as the dude is stoned throughout. He's a character in the movie though, not then full tone. That's probably why it's so good. It blends so many genres with an interesting interweaving plot and wonderful dialogue.

It's a deserved reputation as it's great to watch stoned. Especially when the dude is confused and so are you. Or the psychedelic sequences. However it's also not deserved as it's so much cleverer than that with differen levels. A stoner comedy doesn't normally have a coherent plot and levels.

Interesting. When my husband suggested we watch it, ages ago really early on in our relationship, I had asked him what category it was. I also asked him just now. Just now he went "Oh that's difficult but broadly speaking it's a comedy". I said "I asked that question of you when you showed it to me like 15 years ago. So you know what you said then?" "No, what did I say then?" "You called it a dark comedy because someone died" (because I was and am sensitive to that) He nodded and said "Makes sense"

That's going off the deep end for me. I prefer the interpretation that its a video essay on masculinity. "What makes a man a man?" is the central tenet of that movie, and personally, knowing that was a really crystallizing moment that made all the bullshit fall aside. I read a beautifully succinct essay about this somewhere and will look for the link.

I liked it a long time ago, but last time I watched it I didn't enjoy it nearly as much. The eugenics annoys me far more than it used to, and most of the humor is just crass and doesn't have a meaning. They aren't using it to say anything larger.

Meanwhile the themes of the movie are anti-capitalist (sort of, without the philosophy of considering why it causes issues) and anti-populist. It has something to say, but I feel like they're far too careful to say it. Its got a veil of critique, but without wanting to make too many waves, because it's still a big budget capitalist movie at the end of the day.

I feel like it makes a lot of people feel smug and turns them into reactionary anti-establishment conspiracy theorists, because it only says "this is bad and stupid" but doesn't give you anywhere to go with that.

Well, way better then No Child of Mine(1997). As I'm a victim of child abuse (although not sexual), it really screwed with me. But if you're in a decent mood, I would recommend it.

I like to shut my brain off and have simple entertainment that doesn’t require much thinking during watching watch time.

My favourite movie of all time is Enemy 2013 and Black Swan but these are movies that go under your skin and everytime I watch them I have to go into spirals of overthinking etc while the above mentioned movies don’t give me that.

Most Villenueve movies are very rewatchable for me. Sicario, BR2049, Arrival, and the Dune films. Others like Incendies, Enemy, and Prisoners not as much, not because they are bad, but because they are pretty heavy to be watched repeatedly.
