Imagine you had a 40-year old unemployed third cousin with learning disabilities that never had a job or any friends, finding a VHS camera in a dumpster, and he got some people he found on Craigslist to shoot a comedy, but they didn't know how to act, none of them had an ounce of comedic talent and they started shooting the movie without a script or rough sketch on what the movie was going to be about. There you have this movie: The Gilbert Diaries. It's a mess.
I watched seemingly forever waiting for the some kind of surprise showing me that the beginning of the movie was just a weird dream, or some meta/satirical commentary of something (I don't know what), until it finally dawned on me that this WAS the movie.
However many minutes you manage to sit through, you will regret them all. Every single one.
