Obsessive orchid hunter John Laroche (Cooper), New Yorker journalist Susan Orlean (Streep), Hollywood screenwriter Charlie Kaufman (Cage), and his twin brother, Donald (also Cage). As Charlie struggles to adapt Orlean's best-selling book "The Orchid Thief," he writes himself into his own movie. The various stories crash into one another exploding into a wildly imaginative film.

An intelligent movie treat in which everyone goes full throttle, but its extraordinary subject still seems to be not fully developed in the end. It stumbles somewhere along the way, but it’s hard to say where exactly.

A work of genius where Charlie Kaufman proves his a screenwriting god (and forces me to soon rewatch Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which for some reason I didn’t like too much the first time), and with Nicholas Cage delivering a great double performance. Perhaps, it could have had someone bolder behind the camera, though Spike Jonze doesn’t add or take anything from the amazing script. Adaptation is a great film that I unfairly avoided for a long time.

A loopy movie from the pen of Kaufmann. And this time about himself. Alternative title: How to write a movie about a book adaptation while using all possible “Hollywood" clichés. I’m just interested in what kind of guy Charlie is in real life. The only thing lacking is “loopier" directing, because Jonze’s is just too ordinary and unimaginative. This style just isn’t suited to Kaufman’s things at all (Gondry is the one). I consider this to be the third best movie that he wrote the screenplay to. P.S. It’s well worth waiting for the credits to end.

An interesting existential probe among a specific breed of emotional and life failures, but in essence it is a similar social experiment to the likes of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. In other words, a very bizarre film where you have nothing to like and only shrug in appreciation of the sophisticated script, the editing and the acting.

Charlie Kaufmann wrote a script that you simply won't see anywhere else. This is such a special piece of work that you will just stare at what you are watching. But you might stare even harder at the fact that it all makes sense, even if it's taken to a whole new dimension. Reality and cinema intertwine incredibly, thanks to the great actors led by Nicolas Cage.
