Inherent Vice - the movie felt like observing high people at a very boring party who believe they are the life of it, for 2.5 hours. We've all been there - at such parties, I mean. But Inherent Vice managed to take this to the cinema.
When I was asked what I thought about it, I couldn't answer because I didn't know what the movie was about. It's probably a really good movie... if you get it. So I checked Twitter to see what some other people were thinking and it turns out I might not be the only one confused by it:
I have no idea what just happened #InherentVice

At least 4 separate groups of people walked out from #InherentVice last night. Often a good sign of a film! Was messy, confusing and fun

I watched #InherentVice so you don't have to. Fell asleep so don't ask me what happens.

To sit through #InherentVice I recommend taking a leaf from Joaquin Phoenix's character and bring a note pad with you #soconfused

Just saw #InherentVice and am pretty sure it was a good film. That said I have no idea what it was about.

What is the key to understanding it? A little secret: Inherent Vice is not actually meant to be understood. Doesn't knowing that make you feel better?
