Dave K For an unpredictable movie it was rather predictable. The actors and acting were very good. It must have played well in the theatres and for the fans. Of course you had to look past the stupid plot. Maybe in the US there are enough crack heads and dreamers to think the plot could happen. After all 1/3rd of the Us is either high on something or on prescription drugs. So I can see the irrational hype on RT. Should have been more like 30 for the critics and 60 for the fans. Fans are going to over look the plot and critics are afraid to declare this one stupid. I rate movies on if I would ever watch it again. No, I am more than done with this bird poop. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/14/25 Full Review Ben L A great Movie! Classic! OMG Will, Maggie! Whole Wide World. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/02/25 Full Review Melissa M Every comedian does a thinker movie. A movie that's deep and really makes you think about things in a psychological way. Or has a deep meaningful plot. That makes you examine life in somewhat comical way. This movie is definitely one of them. In the film the character of Harold is a creature of habit. throughout the film he's getting the funny feeling that his life is being narrated. All of a sudden one day his watch stops and he realizes it's time to reexamine his life. He is told by the narrator that his death is imminent. The storyline is highly imaginative. It's good to see that Hollywood has somewhat of an imagination still. Will ferrell, Dustin hoffman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Emma Thompson, & Dana Owens are in the movie. It's a very eclectic cast. For a very eclectic movie. It's surprisingly good. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/25 Full Review Audience Member Loved it. It’s nothing particularly amazing but with so many films recycling the same hashed out plots over and over, Stranger Than Fiction gets 5 stars for it’s originality and non-formulaic plot. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review Diana H LOVED. Will watch again. Well-written and directed. The cast - oh my greatness. All wonderful. Loved the bits of business from Emma Thompson and Dustin Hoffman. I was surprised to see some negative reviews above. It's hard to grasp that some professional critics just didn't (grasp it). Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review Russell R This was a fabulous movie , I can't believe I had not even heard of it until now . So well written to perfection with warmth, feelings and emotion, comedy , mystery, it really has it all . I wish everyone who has feelings could watch this and enjoy it as much as me and my wife did . Will Ferrell is a genius and pulled this off masterfully. The whole cast made this a masterpiece. Thank you all for this wonderful gift of a movie. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/25 Full Review Read all reviews
