Rent it

I watched "Waking Life" last night. I just bought it (pretty cheap too) and it was the second time i've seen it (1st time >1 year ago). It totally blew my freakin mind! There is so much to that movie. Many meanings, thoughts, philosophies. It talks about society, religion, dreams, consciousness, perversion, intelligence, biology, evolution, and a lot more. I highly recommend it to you all who have not seen it.

Warning: it is super intense and thought provoking. This movie takes your brain out of your head, beats the shit out of it, then throws it back in. It gives you so much that it is too much. But damn, if you are in the mood to think about life and philosophy- it can be a life changing experience. But if you want to veg and watch some canned hollywood crap-peice, this is not the movie for you.

it starts good, but I think it fades late and doesnt finish strong.

Thats what i thought the first time i saw it. But i think i actually just got burnt out. Some of the later conversations are as good as the earlier. It doesnt follow a typical 'movie' story like you keep expecting it too.
