Wrong2012
Dolph Springer awakens one morning to find he has lost the sole love of his life, his dog, Paul. Desperate to reunite with his best friend and to set things right, Dolph embarks on a journey which spirals into the realm of the absurd. On his quest, he drastically alters the lives of several severely bizarro characters, including a promiscuous pizza delivery girl, a mentally unstable, jogging-addicted neighbor, an opportunistic French-Mexican gardener, an eccentric pet detective and most mysterious of all, an enigmatic pony-tailed guru, Master Chang who imparts his teachings to Dolph on how to metaphysically reconnect with his pet. From fearless cinematic surrealist Quentin Dupieux, the director behind the head-exploding RUBBER, WRONG is an entrancing and wholly original hallucinatory universe all its own.
What makes this film worth watching?
"...a literal and figurative shaggy-dog story that takes its surreal kinks in stride." - John DeFore, the Hollywood Reporter

A universe of colliding non-sequiturs. All at once, marvelously engaging, pleasingly awkward and totally baffling. Everything within this film presents as so convincingly normal that it can't possibly be wrong. And yet it is. There is a fine line between insanity and brilliance, watch and see.

Somewhat humorous but a really stupid movie.

Quentin Dupieux's experimental film is something completely unique. It features a surprisingly committed performance in what can only be described as Surrealist take on modern life captured within a simple story of nice guy just trying to find his beloved pet dog. It is an odd, twisted, frustrating, funny and often disturbing journey that leads to whole new form of cinema.
Weird but touching and fun to watch. Though the connection to reality is at most intermittent, mostly non-existent, it was surprisingly involving and end was touching. Definitely worth a watch.
Surrealistic and funny on moments. Characters proceed through absurd situations as if that was their everyday. Music/Sound help create the atmosphere very well. It is just that the the movie as a whole did not leave a big impression on me.
Really good. A common concept but told in a very new way!
