I went to see the new Linklater movie today, A Scanner Darkly. It was really well done, and very faithful to the book. I really liked the visuals, and the movie was surprisingly funny. Then again, the book was as well, but the movie has proportionally more of that great paranoid-druggie humor. The acting was a bit cartoony, which sort of makes sense given the look of the film, but may strike some as overacting. At any rate, Robert Downey Jr. was great, one of the best things about the movie.
