IMDB

From the director of A Hard Day's Night and Superman III comes this absurd, screwball movie about a casanova-type trying to teach his roommate how to have "the knack." Having the knack is being able to pick-up women. This movie may also be about rape fantasy. It's kind of hard to tell what the fuck is going on, really.
This movie is completely off the wall in the same way as A Hard Day's Night. It's actually crazier than AHDN, which is truly impressive, I think. It features the same crazy editing, but the story is a little less straight-forward. This is a really good 'what the fuck' movie.

9/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
