I had to wait over a month after seeing Punch Drunk Love to write this. It took that long to get the unparalleled hatred out of my system. Still, this is easily the worst film I have ever sat through (Congrats Island of Dr. Moreau...you're now #2!) I've never walked out of a movie, but it almost happened here. This movie is annoying, pointless and well, stupid. The characters don't have depth; they're crazy. There is a difference. It showed me nothing about life. Never made me laugh. Not that I could understand the dialogue under the migraine-worthy music. Romantic? Realistic? God help us all if this is reality. Personally, I'm using this movie as a new standard of badness. "Oh yes, it was boring, but it wasn't 'Punch Drunk' boring." I also think it may be a good test of sanity. I'm sorry, but if you liked this movie, I'm worried about you. Identifying with these characters is not for the well adjusted among us. For everyone else, 90 minutes of dental work would probably be more pleasant than this movie going experience.
