   I've never cringed so hard at anything in my entire life as I did at Michael Cera's character in this. 10 years 5 months ago

   Crystal Fairy & The Magical Cacutus and 2012 is an indie movie based on director Sebastian Silva's real-life experiences, which justifies the hand-held, free-flowing, improvised documentary approach, but doesn't actually forgive the film's longueurs. Michael Cera stars as an impatient young American seeking a very specific high in Chile from a San Pedro cactus. He and three brothers inadvertently pick up a hippie chick who calls herself Crystal Fairy (Gaby Hoffmann) who becomes the strangest member of the group. It's not quite the comedy the trailer makes it out to be. Instead, it's a rambling character study. And it does ramble. While the performances are raw and honest, it takes far too long to get to the beach where everything is going to happen (or not happen), and just as it gets interesting, it ends. It's frustrating. It takes more than hour to connect to these characters, and once you do, once you might even shed a tear for one of them, it's all over, things left unresolved. All the way through, it's like it's almost saying something important, it's almost metaphorical in how it deals with characters, but things never really come into focus. Maybe it bears multiple viewings, but I'm not sure I have the patience for it. 8 years 10 months ago
