"A man discovers the voice of a female writer in his head that narrates everything he does. This voice leads him to a radical change in lifestyle, but also to the realisation of an imminent demise. Intelligent and compelling but also commercially appealing. Though its philosophy and morality is simple and proletariat, the way in which it is portrayed is witty and original. However, its leniance towards conventional structure is rather disappointing considering that this film was made in the age of Spike Jonze and Michel Gondry."
