This film is a dead ringer. Had all the actors performed as well as the main character, I would vote this a film of the year.
Such expert use of thematic elements and excellent story telling is a rarity in comedy films. I can't recall ever laughing so hard at a scenes without dialog or having seen humour set up so completely with juxtaposition and other thematic/story telling elements. The writer/director must have had a liberal arts education. I won't be surprised if this film is remade in Hollywood, it's that exceptional.
The 2 audio commentaries add to the aura of this already excellent film, with intelligent and funny behind the scenes dialog.
