RNHunter Not a bad movie. I cannot say that I found the comedy or acting great - but the plot was definitely worth while. It seems to me that many movies follow the same old formulas and scenes and events and that a unique plot for a movie is very rare indeed. Well, this movie is very unique and creative and does cause one to think.Other movies with unique plots? When "Aliens" and "Jurassic Park" were each first released, I thought the uniqueness of each was great and mind expanding. Of course they were both so copied - including even through their own sequels - that later moviegoers may not remember they had some breakthroughs first.Bug is such a break through - a new plot direction. Well worth seeing.

tedg Spoilers herein.I have a particular fondness for films that spread out over many plots and characters. There are all sorts of reasons to do so. Scoping out why one would do this and figuring why it works if it does is a sweet pleasure. Often (not here) the stories include stories about just such figuring.One reason to spread the story is simply because you can and that you can make the mechanics of passing the thing we watch. In its time, `Nashville,' then `Short Cuts' was shocking just because they had short cuts. We noticed the varieties and switching more than the episodes themselves.`Bug' follows that tradition but these days you have to really emphasize the transitions because we have gotten so used sliced and diced narrative. So we have this Rube Goldbergian machine that is itself the focus of this project. Life is as much a matter of passing energy as it is at stewarding. Okay as an idea, but after an hour, the novelty doesn't grab us any more.Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 3: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.

quantumkreations The way this movie unfolds is perfect. Every action is shown and the reaction follows. How everyone is intertwined without them knowing is incredible. Makes me think about the next time i short a waiter.

untrusted I just watched this movie on Showtime. Quite by accident actually. If I wouldn't have only had 6 hrs of sleep for the past two days then I wouldn't have came home early from work. If I hadn't came home early from work I wouldn't have seen this movie. I wouldn't have known what I was missing, but I would've missed a lot.That's the way this movie is. It's almost playing on the Kevin Bacon effect. That and causality (hence my verbiage above). Ever character is intertwined in some way or another. Action, reaction, interaction, non-interaction. This movie is just wonderful. I'm going to have to find a copy to buy.
