Bathtime

About This Movie

So, 'Bathtime' is this quirky little comedy from '97 that dives into some pretty dark themes in a surprisingly lighthearted way. The plot centers around a guy who is just utterly devoted to his goldfish—like, to the point where he thinks he needs to end it all for the fish's sake. The pacing is oddly relaxed, which gives it this absurd quality; it’s almost like watching a train wreck in slow motion. The practical effects, though minimal, add a certain charm, especially in the bathtub scenes. The performances are a mixed bag, but it feels intentional, enhancing that offbeat vibe. It’s distinctive for how it tackles such a heavy subject with humor. Definitely not your average comedy.
