Stranger Than Fiction
"Adaptation for the strip-mall cineplex."
Of course I haven't actually seen Adaptation yet (it's on its way from Screenclick) but that summary sounds about right from what I know. My own, less erudite but possibly more accessible, judgement is that Stranger Than Fiction is a fantastic premise in search of a story to do it justice. It's worth seeing, and it has some delightful moments (Ferrell's reaction to hearing about his imminent death is hilarious), but it really doesn't live up to its promise.
