      I fucking love In the Loop, but it took me a few viewings to understand what the hell was going on. I should watch it again.

        The TV show was really good too, but the movie captures the absurdity so well.

      That might explain why I didn’t like it too much. I saw it last year, it probably hits too close to home :/
