Цитата:

The story follows young stock market analyst and billionaire Eric Packer as he cruises through Manhattan in his decadent stretch limousine and mobile office on his way to get a haircut. He crosses paths with his business partners (great bit-part performances from Jay Baruchel, Juliette Binochet and later, Paul Giamatti) and his young wife, Elise (Sarah Gadon) as the city begins to crumble under the weight of a Presidential visit and anti-capitalist protests. What ensues could be best described as a brutal blend of ‘Falling Down’ and something like Richard Linklater’s existential ‘Waking Life’. http://shotguncritic.com/2012/07/31/review-cosmopolis/

Цитата:

In order for the film to work we need to become as desensitized as Packer himself, and in giving the bulk of the screen time to philosophical musings Cronenberg has hit upon an effective if deadening strategy. The film I was reminded of most was Richard Linklater's horribly smug Waking Life (2001). It shares that movie's Pilgrim's Progress-like construction, but rather than dreary ruminations on the nature of dreaming offers dreary ruminations on the nature of money. http://thequietus.com/articles/09051...nenberg-review

Цитата:

Oh man, it looks awesome and gets messed up over the course of the film. If you're a fan of David Mamet and Richard Linklater's works like Before Sunset, Waking Life, Glengarry Glen Ross, and especially Edmond (another great midnight neo- noir), you'll feel comfortable with the pacing. http://www.imdb.com/user/ur1909906/comments

а ещё цитата из фильма, возможно, намекающая на этот фильм (хотя тут скорее всего просто совпало, хотя не думаю, что "to wake life" - сильно распространенная фраза)
