TWBB is a fascinating display of power struggle accented by the effects of modern capitalism on the mind and family. The soundtrack, cinematography, and performances are just the icing on the cake. Try again. Quote:

inherent vice is by far his least enjoyable film but it's ok cause all of his others are ****in' bangers
TWBB is like an A+++ the master tho goddamn that's almost as good maybe there and boogie nights oh baby magnolia? just shut the **** up man it's brilliant i guess punch drunk love left a little tiny bit to be desired but it's still a really good movie

Easily his best imo.
TWBB is up there but I prefer the plot and setting of BN.

JTF said PTA-lite, I say it's PTA deconstructed. I feel like he's carving an interesting path with this one.

EDIT: Didn't realize Magnolia was also PTA. Need to see that one again. It's been so long I can't remember anything except Tom Cruise's character in the movie. |

No, those two definitely go a lot lower. TWBB is beautifully shot, well acted, has a great concept, and has a great score, but it's somehow lacking something a fundamental way. By the end of the movie, I found myself just not really caring. The Master was like that too, but with less impressive cinematography and a less memorable score.
