About This Movie

So, 'What About Dick?' is quite the peculiar piece from 2012. It's got this absurd comedic vibe that’s hard to pin down. The narrative kicks off with the birth of a sex toy, which is already a wild premise, and then it weaves through the decline of the British Empire from the perspective of a Piano. Yeah, a Piano. It’s narrated almost like a twisted fairy tale, and the pacing is erratic—deliberately so, I think. The performances have a sort of chaotic charm, with a heavy dose of British wit. What sets it apart are the practical effects and that offbeat sense of humor that feels unapologetically bizarre. It’s definitely one of those films where you find yourself wondering who thought this was a good idea—but that’s part of the fun.
