Some moments of genius are undercut by some of the weaker moments, especially near the ending. Acting was spot-on. I can't help feel that Michael Cera plays the same character everywhere he goes. Jason Bateman did an outstanding job, as did Ellen Page. Some of the writing was fantastic, while some of it made me go whiskey tango foxtrot. Overall, a fun, good movie. A very immersing experience.
The movie got confusing for me in the beginning, because I started getting crosscurrents from Superbad and Arrested Development.
The only fear is that it'll become like Garden State in people's minds. It deserves a lot more than that.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
