IMDB

My Rating: 8/10

Forget about thriller, this movie is a fucking comedy.
I don't want to reduce its brilliance by summarizing it. There are a lot of social issue and personal issue discussed while not explicitly pointed out. It's open to your interpretation, or just for your entertainment. It was really entertaining whenever he talks about music, or listening to music in his headphone when other people are trying to talk to him. It's very destructive, very post-modern.
