From the Oscar-winner who brought you ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and BEING JOHN MALKOVICH comes a riveting new masterpiece. Michael Stone - husband father and noted author - travels to Cincinnati to speak at a customer service conference. But once he's separated from the routine of his daily life a chance encounter helps him to realize just what and whom he's been missing. Love laughter and loneliness align in a staggeringly inventive (Chris Nashawaty Entertainment Weekly) stop-motion work of art from directors Charlie Kaufman and Duke Johnson.

Tried so hard but fails so much harder. If you like uncomfortably watching middle-aged fat puppets shower and f*** stop-animation-style you'd be better off watching Team America: World Police. At least you'd get a laugh out of Team America with some sort of plot line unlike Amonolisa which is just garbage.

Absolutely, unforgivably terrible. This movie will have you repeatedly cringing at both the despicable nature of the primary protagonists, and also the intentional and heavily misguided doses of awkwardness injected into the film on a constant basis. Only a sycophantic audience would appreciate a movie so utterly deprived of even a small dose of meaning. The trailer for this movie was the true work of art - it painted a beautiful picture of a spiritual awakening coming to a man drowned in the ordinary... the movie, however, shows only the half-hearted depravity of one man's midlife crisis bursting it's way forth in a gurgle of dry dialogue. We can, of course, all speculate as to what this may "mean", but the movie itself gives us nearly nothing to go on... it does not explain why he finds so much of his life to be meaningless, and it furthermore very unapologetically reveals the protagonists as intellectually and morally dishonest. There is nothing to love in those two. If you're looking for a hallow movie masquerading as a lucidity-inducing drama, look no further... go grab you're thick rimmed glasses and your favorite flannel shirt. For everyone else, steer clear...

This movie was tremendously reaching for some kind of existential meaning. It falls flat. Those who found this 'cerebral' are likely the same who think anything mildly artistic needs to be celebrated. I am highly disappointed. I love movies like Eternal Sunshine..., Frequencies, and Waking Life but Anomalisa squandered it's artistic edge for a sub-par plot. This film is horrendously overrated.
