A Fantastic Fear of Everything

What a unique and encapsulating experience. Paranoia, fear and clever wit all rolled into one film. Pegg delivers his best performance in a motion picture. Creepy and funny, with a greatly used soundtrack. It was a bit out of left field, the movie, but I was kept interested throughout, so it must have worked. Good story, quirky amazing exeuction. The film uses the medium of film to the best of its ability.

B-

I almost never say this, but your grade seems low compared to your thoughts.

I wanted more laughs out of it, and I felt that it was an odd movie in general.
