This odd...or should I say "strange" movie is phenomenal all around. The script is a little dry, but the plot is intelligent, intriguing, and amazingly written. The charming ending clicks and makes the movie extremely rememberable. The story-line is new, fresh,... Full review

Stranger than fiction was a good drama movie. But some of the useless tries to be funny ruined some of the movie. I'd expect more after "anchorman" and "tallageda knights". Luckliy he bounced back with hillarous movies such as Semi Pro... Full review

The "reveal" in this movie ranks up there with the top revelations in movies, especially the reversal at the end. The main character is well chosen, perfectly executed, and my hat's off to this writer for leaving a lot of soul... Full review

It's a shame that these brilliant actors are put to work on this brain-numbing movie. These are actors I would see in a comedy, not a dry-humored (if there is any humor) blip of a project about voices in people's heads... Full review

tragedy is more profound than comedy, the film argues....the movie is actually hysterically funny as it plays out its highbrow ideas in amusing cinematic terms.....This amusing effort is one of the best films of 2006, a surreal comedy about the intersection between art and reality, fact and fiction.....created can co-exist, without ever succumbing to mere whimsy that would render the story a simple spoof rather than a heartfelt drama.....Instead, STRANGER THAN FICTION delivers as a wonderfully romantic come ...

Those familiar with the not-so-special edition of Stranger Than Fiction shouldn't expect anything new on the image side.
The new sound is nice and delivers clear dialogue, but there is nothing truly noteworthy that would warrant great sound technology.

Still, Stranger Than Fiction is surprisingly entertaining, and worthy of a rental.

Stranger Than Fiction isn't a fantasy piece, but it does play on the same fun literary idea in which a fictional character and author, by chance, meet.
Beautiful cinematography, good direction, solid supporting actors, interestingly enough story, despite its predictability, but the main character felt absent.
