I just saw it this week, and it left me with mixed feelings. It seems to me a conscious effort on Wes' part to get quirkier with each film, and I think it is taking away a bit from the movie. A fine line between clever and gimicky imo. Wes needs to develop a theme outside of the emotional addendum of a father figure for his characters. He has gone 4 for 4 in his movies with this theme - I think we get it!
