The film is a poor-man’s Wes Anderson movie. Directed by David O. Russell (Three Kings), Huckabees is at times witty, but unfortunately more often than not the humor feels contrived. But everybody who’s anybody is in this film, including Jude Law who, as Chris Rock joked when he hosted this year’s Oscars, is now in every damn film that has ever been made.
