I love when the inherent music of life shows through. I also love the muppets. Also, this is one of the best arguments against cell phones I’ve ever seen.
If you think you can stomach an 11 year old girl spewing the most profane lines in the movie while gleefully and brutally murdering just about everyone, see this movie. It’s amazingly well constructed, and uses structure and tone to build possibly the most interesting and non-preachy commentary on media violence and the difference between “fantasy” and “reality” I’ve ever seen.
When my jaw wasn’t hanging open in horror, it was a hell of a lot of fun. Especially the ridiculously satisfying last act. I’ll definitely be seeing it again.

I hate it.
If the title appeals to you, even a little bit, see this movie.
It’s awesome.
