Criticism on the movie "Stranger than Fiction"

When I heard this movie title, it made me think what it is all about. Is there anything stranger than fiction? All of the hanging questions in my mind were answered after watching this. This movie is good. At the beginning, it’s quite boring because it’s more on narration about the daily routine of the protagonist. I think it would be much better if the movie starts with scenes that are catchy on the viewer’s eyes. This movie is all about a prominent author in which all of her works has a tragic ending. Until one day, the protagonist in her book that was about to be published, exists in real life: Harold Crick. He always hears a woman’s voice narrating everything and anything he does and these brought him interest to find out why all of these transpired. At first, he thought he has psychological defect that’s why he decided to consult a psychiatrist from whom he was told that maybe he has schizophrenia. These brought him to consult another psychiatrist for the second time, but still he found himself helpless. But he didn’t lose his hope, instead, he consults another person and this time, it helped. He told him about everything that transpired in his life. Until one day, when he went again to Prof. Hilbert’s office, he heard again the voice. But this time, through an interview on T.V. which leads him to look for that woman he saw. And she’s exactly the author. How ironic isn’t it? The love story in this movie is very boring. I think it’s much better if the scenes after Harold Crick convinced the author to revise the tragic ending of his life into a happy ending story would be interesting to watch. Especially when their love story was showed. It lacks with exciting events; insufficient, I must say. I’m not satisfied with its ending despite Harold was saved from death.
