Schizopolis is piled with layers of amusement for

Schizopolis is piled with layers of amusement for the id, ego, and superego. People earn their liberal arts degrees in order to be able to watch and understand this film. Some of it is outright funny (like a man with no pants running around) or weird funny (e.g. an exterminator milkman that talks like the $10,000 Pyramid on Mars), but much of it you have got to get it to get it (not all of it, but some amount); this is, after all, satire and social commentary. So if postmodernism and the contemporary art section of your local museum is not your bag, then you are still probably in the target audience for Schizopolis, but it will likely be a miss. On the other hand, if you are a fan of the 90s era, Office Space and Short Cuts, then Schizopolis may just be your kind of movie.

Zany, layered, and surreal. Somewhat outdated in appearance, but still a film I hold dear.

At the beginning of Schizopolis, Steven Soderbergh introduces

At the beginning of Schizopolis, Steven Soderbergh introduces the movie saying if you don't understand the movie, it's your fault not his. The movie proceeds with a kind of a plot (loosely defined) with plenty of non-sequiturs sprinkled throughout. One of my favorite scenes in all cinema is Soderbergh, the actor, standing alone in front of a men's room mirror and contorting his rubbery face in all manner of ways. It has nothing to do with the rest of the movie, and it's hilarious. There's more where that comes from and somehow most of it works. It feels like the movie Soderbergh wanted to make for his own amusement, and the audience is just incidental. Johnny C sez check it out if you're not too literal-minded.
