Stranger Than Fiction

My low expectations really helped in my enjoyment of this film.

Emma Thompson was great.

Will Ferrell is a funny man.

The story is good, if not original, and there were some truly hilarious moments, but still I was underwhelmed.

Interesting that you thought Emma was great. I thought her portrayal of the author was a bit too over the top. I found that whenever she was on screen I was pulled out of the plot because her performance didn't seem natural to me. I did, however, think that Maggie Gyllenhaal did a phenomenal job.
Overall, the movie exceeded my expectations. I love a smart, quirky movie, and this was both.
