What made this movie a 9 for me was the total unpredictability of it. I couldn't even begin to imagine what would happen next, resulting in a totally enthralling experience. That and it had a wicked soundtrack. It was similar to The Royal Tennenbaums except this wasn't garbage. With a great cast, witty, funny dialogue, and at least three Oscar-deserving performances, this was a top-notch movie all the way. Warning: it is a little on the depressing side... okay, a LOT on the depressing side, despite the plentitude of funny lines and incidents. Nevertheless, I walked out of the theatre with high spirits. I don't know if I would go so far as to call it a feel-good movie, but I strangely found it somewhat uplifting. My first born child will be named Igby.
