Sundance 2012: 'Wrong' review


Wrong is the new film from Quentin Dupieux, who last made the killer-tire horror-comedy Rubber. Wrong isn't a genre send-up like Rubber was, though: This time around, Dupieux is going for an off-kilter, absurdist comedy in which people still work in offices even after they're fired and lonely losers seek out their lost dogs while debating the merits of a new pizza company's logo. If deadpan oddness is your thing, you'll eat up Wrong. I was a little more mixed, personally: I explain why over at Screen International.
