A bit crude, but awfully clever
planktonrules29 January 2009
Warning: Spoilers
This is a clever little film that was probably a bit more timely a few years ago--back when Microsoft included the evil and much hated "Clippy" as a so-called assistant to Word. Clippy was just an annoyance and you notice that subsequent versions of Microsoft Office dropped it (thankfully). Well, imagine that Clippy is not just part of Word but a program designed to help up and coming screen writers. In this film, Bob installs this program and is shocked to see that his "assistant" mostly critiques his life, his lack of talent and knows far more than it should! It's all very funny and cleverly done, though it's not for younger audiences due to the language--though I must admit that much of the time the cursing did fit the plot and wasn't really gratuitous. Clever and funny--give it a look.
