  Really Good

  by

  I would first like to say that in order to enjoy this film you have to be a Fan of Joaquin, if you are not don't even go. If you are you are in for such a treat. This film was so surprising, Clever, Funny, Sad, Poetic and very unique. Just a few words I would use to describe this film. I am still not sure if this is real or not. Must See!

  I'm Still Here for real

  by everyweek60706

  Actors pretending to be somebody else in a made up story - why the very idea! It appears this movie is an attack on reality actors who are in fact scabs. COPS is credited with being the first reality show and a direct response to the last SAG strike. The freaks who appear on Springer and the like are paid minimum scale as actors. One of the Letterman writers claims written evidence that Dave knew Joaquin was playing a character in the famous first interview. In the second interview Joaquin says the project was motivated by the 'reality' issue. I find the whole thing fascinating, the Letterman interviews, the movie, the news stories. The movie doesn't seem to be about celebrity but more about work and career management. The subject matter of the film is disgusting stuff, it got me out and into the city on a work night at twice what I usually spend, but it was well worth it.

  Excellent Acting Job

  by

  It seems like Casey Affleck and Joaquin Phoenix were trying to jump on the Borat and Brüno bandwagon with this Doku. Parts of it, especially Joaquin on stage reminds of Klaus Kinski freaking out back in the day. Since the end credits say that the movie has been written and produced by Phoenix and Afflek, this answers the question about being a hoax or a documentary. However Joaquins acting is superb and one gets access to see how he lives his live. There is also a special thanks to Gus Van Sant since there are some elements of the last days of Kurt Cobain in there as well. And since at some point where Joaquin can´t trust his assistant anymore (kind of the same person Brüno had as a helper only more dressed like Warhol) the Mafia theme rings during the film. But one wonders since he was such a great musician in walk the line why did he not do a better Job at Hip Hop, like Eminem?
