In all this movie's absurdity and ridiculousness, I liked it. It got way stupid when the wolf thing killed the guy who was talking about his death in a plot line, but damn it kept me more interested that the Ballad of Ricky Bobby. I thought it was stupid of M. Night to put the cliched "we have a purpose" type of story and spin it in a bedtime story, but eh, it sort of works.
I couldn't stop laughing at the dialogue though. There was this one scene where Cleveland confronts the scrunt while the narf, Story, is telling him how to control the srunt (jeez by saying that sentence sounds crazy) . She is describing what to do to Cleveland in just horrible sentences that make me think, "Does Bryce Dallas Howard know how stupid she sounds?"
Overall, its an okay movie. The director just needs to do something else......and not act in his movies.
