Slacker Updated, With a Twist. - Waking Life review by Steve
Brain exhausting fantasy featuring the thoughts of a man dying in a road accident, representing his last eight minutes of brain activity after the body dies. In this rotoscoped world, he dreams of, or recalls, visits to his friends to discuss philosophy, conspiracy and the universe. A hundred minutes of dense, difficult dialogue; but fascinating.

This film is Like being around your friends when they are drunk and you are sober, don't watch sober - Waking Life review by RC
I would not recommend this film at all. To say it is weird is being very kind. My opinion is that the film is nonsensical rambling that everyone can do without. I think it's one of those films that people want to be seen to enjoy because it's so highly rated - but not for the sober.
To be honest I didn't finish the film but I was very relived to turn it off and be released from it. No stars.
