In a genuine way, this might be the best film ever if you want to introduce someone to David Lynch’s overall style. Going even as far as to include a Lynch signature ominous solo ballad right before its climax, What Did Jack Do? puts the beloved filmmaker’s tropes on full-display in an endearing and enjoyable condensed format.

Super groovy, super colorful, and tons of fun! The scene where Ivanhoe (Jimmy Cliff) sings his actual song, the titular “The Harder They Come”, had me wanting to dance right off my seat! Might be my first Jamaican film ever; hopefully not my last!

The soundtrack is probably the film’s biggest strength—it’s rightly included on Rolling Stone’s greatest albums list. Really need to get into more Jamaican reggae this year.

A witty romantic tale laced with Twilight Zone/Inception type mind-fuckery. I haven't felt this good about a movie like this since Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Much thanks for the recommendation, Edgar Wright!
