Anomalisa is an odd film, as you'd expect from Charlie Kaufman, the maker of Being John Malkovich and Adaptation. I didn't really know what to expect, because the film critics I respect and usually agree with, were very divided on whether it is a masterpiece or an unsuccessful oddity. It is certainly a technical triumph, taking stop-motion animation to a new level, and I found it very intriguing and also funny in places. It's short at only 90 minutes, which is always a bonus for me given my increasingly pathetic attention span. However it didn't reach 'masterpiece' for me.
