Nothing But Visuals. March 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Nothing is a bizarre movie. Reveiwer J. C Clark hits the mark saying this movie was "Entertainingly Disappointing". Its such a fun idea, you expect it could do so well, but somehow it never manages just that. Now that I think of it, it could just be the nature of the movie. I think this movie never could be done right, unless possibly...there was some tweaking of the script. The acting is poor and I hate to say something like this about a person, but the actor in the movie, nebbishy Andrew Miller, with reddish curly hair was frightfully annoying.
On the flip side the visuals are the only thing worth mentioning. The sets are fantastic. The house, which looks more like half a house, looks great tucked underneath and between highway ramps. The sets within the house are also rich, covered wall to wall with junk only male roomies would and could put on their walls. There is also a terrific but sadly too short a scene of a futuristic-looking Toronto, designed in a manner reminiscent of a Michel Gondry creation.
For film junkies and collectors, this is a nice piece to add to your collection of DVDs as it is very postmodern.

The movie starts off with a semi-interesting twist. The two main characters, Andrew and Dave, encounter some slight troubles with the law. Andrew gets accused of kissing a pre-teen girl scout and Dave's ex-girlfriend steals over $27,000 from his workplace. The angry parent of the girlscout shows up to their house, as well as the police. Then NOTHING comes and 'NOTHING' hits the wall.
Aside from Andrew being annoying as possible throughout the entire movie, the film has taken many good ideas and done absolutely NOTHING with them. You find yourself waiting for something to happen, which is the only reason I continued to watch the movie. Everything they hate disappears and soon they begin to hate eachother, which you see coming the entire time. Poor acting and a weak plot destroy what could have been a good movie.

Yeah for Nothing! Two friends with more than the common amount of neurosis hate the outside world away. They're left with half a house, Stan the turtle, each other, and, of course, Nothing. The strange visual texture of the city of Toronto provides a great contrast for the expansive Nothing that dominates the screen for most of the movie. The animation sequences during the opening/closing credits are fun; the acting is fantastic and the script is funny as all get out. It makes you wonder how the director of a D Horror movie like Cube could produce an engaging romp like Nothing. Chalk it up to personal growth, I guess.
I highly, highly, highly recommend this move. Sadly, not everyone is cool enough to enjoy it. And to those people I say, Sucks to be you.

This movie was terrible. It couldve been something, but went nowhere. It seems like a children's made for PBS movie. I love all kinds of weird B movies and quirky indie flicks, but this was absolute trash. The characters are completely unlikeable and excruciatingly painful to watch. If you like to watch two guys bouncing around a white background for an hour and a half whilst crying about it, then rent it. The scenery probably resembles your mind.
