In Reply to: The best satire on the Hollywood system wasn't a movie, it was the short-lived TV series Action! posted by Audiophilander on March 21, 2004 at 17:42:40:
The best satire of the Hollywood system is probably "The Player". I have a soft spot for "The Big Picture" too."Adaptation" worked for me. It's overlapping reality / fantasy elements made for a difficult story to follow and thus connect with the characters. I like the movie more for it's plot machinations and clever continuity devices than it's character development. The story was just too cynical to really let you like any of the characters. I suppose it's the same thing as saying you love "Blade Runner" because the sets and art direction are so cool, even if the the other elements of it are flawed, see?
I could also not see this being a good movie to see in a group of friends at home because there is more likelihood of losing continuity with even a momentary lapse of concentration.
