it wasn't scored by the guy who was actually in the movie. the artist's name is gogol bordello, and the character eugene is loosely based on the frontman "eugene hutz" of gogol bordello. not exactly sure why they had the whole gogol bordello influence, but the music is great
It's based off the short story "Kneller's Happy Campers" by Etgar Keret (pretty sweet name) which is an excellent read for anyone who like this movie. Best part: At one point the men find themselves in a Palestinian bar, and an Israeli suicide asks a Palestinian suicide, “Is it true that when you people go out on a job they promise you seventy nymphomaniac virgins in Kingdom Come?...” The Palestinian replies, “Sure, they promise, and look what it got me. Lukewarm vodka.”
No spoiler here! Just wanted to say, they needed that ending otherwise I would have been mad that the entire thing was depressing. The happiness gave it purpose, like "Thank god I held out for this." :)
I watched this movie today. Its my new favorite. It wasnt boring at any parts. You just have to enjoy drama and independent style. Acting and music were great and i loved the ending even though phillyd said he didnt.
I think one of the best parts about this movie is that Tom Waits is in it. And the guy who plays Eugene was inspired by Eugene Hutz (who's band does most of the music in the movie). Pretty good.
What i took from the movie is that: "miracles" happen when you don't care.
And so i wonder, does love work that way?
Movie is stupid. It shows that one cannot get what they want (love, for instance) when they want it. That is so stupid and unfair. That means 1) you have to pretend to not want what you want, in order to get it, or 2) you get the cards you are dealt and there is nothing you can do about it. This is bulls-! Fuck this. Novel story. Dumb moral.
i really liked wristcutters, but the end was kinda not awesome. it was okay, but still not amazing. i like that a lot of the music in the movie was by people in the movie (Gogol Bordello and Tom Waits) and i liked the dark humor
I saw the movie a while back and loved it. it not really a dark comedy but just a dark something.... but I love any movie that has music like this one. like everything is illuminated which is a great movie (the book is better)but yeah, I liked it
Im from the UK so i can't sign up to Netflix :( but i pirated the movie and watched it and really liked it! My thoughts were that it made suicide seem more appealing to people, dunno if thats just me, still a great movie though!

The movie itself is actually up on Youtube. As long as you're willing to sit through maybe three minutes of comercials total for an entire movie, it's there, it's free, and you can watch it whenever.
is it just me or odes that whole "in the car driving throuhg the middle of nowhere picking up a chick she flirts two guys" thingy ma bob look exactly like Bunny an the Bull? <-- really good film

I like the concept of what happens after suicides because it still says you get punished for it so it's not glorifying it or anyhting but its not this you go straight to hell for killing yourself but it also sucks cause sometimes there are situations where people are trapt and I know people say there's always a way out or it'll get better but sometimes things are what they are & you have no choice or you're gonna be there for a long time & the situation's just too heavy.
