Reviews for I Heart Huckabees
We're more in like with Huckabees, than in love.
10/01/04
It's filled with characters who, desperate to feel deep, want answers to life's big questions. And watching it, you, also desperate to feel deep, will want answers to big questions like, 'What's this all about?'
10/07/04
Russell exhibits a sure hand with his subject matter, from Camus’ absurdism to Buddhism’s unity of the universe, to his dogged optimism about it all
09/26/04
It is difficult for me to describe how sweet and buoyant I found the film, despite its seemingly excessive stylization.
10/14/04
Top CriticFor all its madcap whimsy, the film still manages to pack a much more powerful intellectual and moral punch than, say, your average Hollywood blockbuster.
11/26/04
As with Russell's other films, Huckabees moves its audience from initial bafflement to a broader apprehension of a situation rife with complexity.
12/07/04
Life as a blanket: He's you and you're me and we're both Bob Newhart in this brilliant comic romp.
10/25/04
Simultaneously scattered and thought-provoking, as if writer/director David O. Russell gathered up all his loose ideas and decided to pack them tightly into one movie.
10/07/04
Top CriticI (Heart) Huckabees is an original, interesting, sometimes frustrating feature; a movie that at times you have no idea what you are watching . . .
10/21/04
Besides, where else can you see Jude Law vomit lightly into his hand and slurp it back up? Not in Sky Captain, lemme tell ya.
09/30/04
If introductory philosophy was this much fun, enrolment would go through the roof.
10/12/04
Schwartzman and Law are pitch-perfect in their roles as dueling poster boys for a transcendent existence versus a materially rich life.
09/30/04
Top CriticTo enjoy this movie, you just have to accept that fact that it doesn't always make sense. The moments of fun outweigh the times when they're trying too hard to be clever.
10/08/04
It's very talky. It's pretentious. But I enjoyed it despite all of those things.
10/07/04
A heady, messy piece of existential angst that works against all odds.
10/07/04
Top CriticIf it had the unwavering focus and clear-eyed vision of Russell's previous two features, I Heart Huckabees might have been brilliant.
09/30/04
And yet, reasons, solutions, and strategies might be found, through and in connections. However random.
10/01/04
If you're up for it, you'll discover a fresh, funny little romp unafraid to tackle the biggest issues of all.
04/01/06
David O. Russell continues to prove just how wacky a filmmaker he truly is. In 'Huckabees the laughs are mixed, but the wackiness couldn't be more inspired.
