Just a bad, bad movie. I like both the Actors, but this is one movie they should have passed up.

Anyone that has been an addict or knows someone that is will appreciate this movie. This one hit really close to home for me since I have a family member with addiction issues.

"Bliss" is a genuinely odd film...one that easily is open to various interpretations. And, as such, it's a real departure for Owen Wilson and Salma Hayek. The film is very difficult to describe. Instea of explaining the actual confusing plot, I'd just say that the film features the pair as either schizophrenics, drug addicts, drug addicts AND schizophrenics or they really are brilliant researchers working on creating an alternate reality!! Sounds weird and confusing...you betcha. So is it worth watching? Well, it certainly is NOT a film for everyone...even the average viewer. This isn't becasue it's necessarily bad....just incredibly weird. If you have a high threshold for the weird by all means watch it. Otherwise, you might just wanna pass on this one.

"Bliss" is one film that challenges as it goes outside of the box and may not be everyone's cup of tea still it entertains and shows that life is still choices and free will in the end. Set in L.A a repair company executive named Greg(Owen Wilson) has his life going no where as he's divorced and appears to be losing his kids and his job is close to getting cut. Only things change in a crazy way one day when time and change take over and get more dream weaver like when he meets a raw and exotic lady named Isabel(the beautiful and sexy Salma Hayek). Crystals and stones play a part in their game as it's like life now for the two is a sci fi fantasy. Things and people change along with time and places as memories can be placed forever and love and life all involves computers and programmed thoughts. Still thru it all the themes of choice, truth, and free will are present. Overall the film entertained and held interest as really it's one cult like underrated thought provoking film.

Like many, the trailer gave me a very different impression than the actual film. It's pretty obvious that it's about mental illness, however the movie attempts to combine that with some gibberish sci-fi story about a "brain box" and reality being a simulation (all connected thru some rigged cpap machines... The movie tries so hard to become multi-layered that it becomes just damn confusing and scattered. Combined with an ending that doesn't really make any sense...ur left wondering, was it all imagined? Was salma hayek's character real? It's about as satisfying as the ending to The Sopranos, maybe even less.
