Review: Nothing (2003)
Score: 7/10
Nothing is a bizarre, philosophically audacious, and surprisingly poignant low-budget Canadian comedy that operates on a premise of pure, surreal logic. Directed by Vincenzo Natali (Cube), it follows two chronically miserable best friends, Dave and Andrew, whose lives are a cascade of petty humiliations and cosmic bad luck. When their world literally begins to disappear around themstarting with a pesky talking squirrelthey discover they have a unique, nihilistic power: anything they agree "is nothing" ceases to exist. What begins as a juvenile game of erasing annoyances spirals into an existential crisis as their entire reality threatens to vanish into a void of their own making.
