Nothing can prepare you for this movie. No matter what you think it is going to be like or about, you will be surprised. It doesn't begin, middle, or end anything like I imagined. It is genuinely original. True, it uses plot devices that have been used before, but it uses them in completely original and unexpected ways.
It is, of course, absolutely absurd. Part of the fun is trying to decide where to draw the line, first between plausibility and absurdity, and later between absurdity and ridiculousness. It is a brand new story told in the tradition of a tall tale.
This movie is for everyone. It manages to contain exciting action and strong emotion without being bloody or perverse. I am an older male adult, not given to emotion, but I actually cried during some of the later scenes. This was embarrassing, but also satisfying.
