This film constantly straddles the line between comedy and horrific drama. Long sequences of dark humor are always interrupted by the shock of dark reality, usually seen through the eyes of another character. While I thought it was an interesting take on the subject matter, I can see how it could turn off general audiences just looking for a straight comedy or horror film. Ryan Reynolds gives one of, if not the best, performances of his career. It's incredible that he actually plays both of the animals' voices as well as the main character. It's definitely an interesting film, seen from the point of view of someone who may be crazy, knows he is, but really wishes he wasn't.
