5/10

**Two strangers in an unusual circumstance take a weirdest journey.** My initial thought was this is a new version of 'Weekend at Bernie's', but very soon I realised it is not. This film is a bit disgusting. Watching alone makes okay or with the close buddies, but not good for beyond that. I totally appreciate the effort and obviously the fresh idea for a film from the Hollywood, but the film is not a masterpiece…

<em>'Swiss Army Man'</em> is bonkers, but then I expected it to be so having seen this directing duo's most recent flick; 2022's <em>'Everything Everywhere All at Once'</em>. It does, at least to me, feel a little thin in parts, though it all ends up coming together nicely. I only knew that Daniel Radcliffe was in this, Paul Dano was not someone I was expecting to see make an appearance. The casting is great…
