Stranger Than Fiction
Description
The film revolves around the boring life of a man named Harold Crick. But one day this changes when Harold begins to hear a writer inside his head tell his life. The narrator is extraordinarily careful, and Harold realizes the sound as a respectable author who watched it on television. But when the narrative reveals that he will die, Harold must find the storyteller to persuade her to change the end of the story before it is too late.

"Stranger Than Fiction" is a sterile and pedantic comedy that tells much more than it shows.

An uncommonly plastic bit of Hallmark sentiment-mongering, with exactly the kind of New Age psychobabble ending youâ(TM)d expect.

Inventively inverting "Adaptation.'s'" anxiety into light romance, "Fiction" is one of the most intelligent, lively, charming and beguiling concept comedies since "Groundhog Day" and a perfect seriocomic splinter of Will Ferrell's big-baby shtick.

Intriguing possibilities, except Helm and Forster aren't quite Kaufman and Jonze. Once their parallel narratives converge, those hoping for a mind-bending meta-pile-up may feel the movie lacks the courage of its fatalistic fiction.

The actors and the filmmakers all take a more restrained approach than you might expect, keeping the humor gentle, and the jokes mostly as literary as the premise.

Stranger Than Fiction seems like an old episode of the Twilight Zone, and the idea would have worked better as one of Rod Serling's half-hour epistles on human foibles.

"It's not the best piece of English literature of the last ten years," Dustin Hoffman says of Emma Thompson's newest novel, "but it's not bad." That just about sums up Stranger Than Fiction, too.

Stranger Than Fiction is both about a novel and like a novel; you eagerly await the turning of the pages.
