We watched Napoleon Dynamite tonight. One word description: FLAT.
I kept thinking how much I like "About a Boy" at the end. So, I guess the hype was lost on me. I really hated the fact that these characters were "outcasts" (as was I in HS) but they just were too stupid to take advantage of it and be subersive - which was half the fun of being an outcast.
I thought briefly that, maybe you had to be there, but I watch all sorts of films from many eras and never have that problem.
