简介:For 27-year-old Ben (Josh Lawson), life couldn’t be better. A well paid job, friends, parties, girls and nothing to tie him down. But when he is invited back to his old school to join several other ex-students including Alex (Rachael Taylor) and Jim (Ed Kavalee) in talking about their personal achievements, something goes wrong. Ben is the only speaker not to be asked a question by the school kids. This triggers a year of soulsearching and looking for answers in all the wrong places. From his best friend Andy (Christian Clark) whose solution is that they both take another holiday, to his mentor Sam (Lachy Hulme) who loans him a sports car in the belief that there’s nothing like excessive speed to resolve emotional turmoil. Not even Ben’s father (Rob Carlton) or friends Nick (Daniel Henshall) and Em (Felicity Ward) can offer much in the way of meaningful guidance. Of course, it’s not easy seeking enlightenment in nightclubs, or on the ski fields of New Zealand, and when you start dating a Russian tennis star things can get really complicated. As the poster boy for a generation desperate to tick every box, Ben begins to suspect that the meaning of life may well reside in the things he's already doing - and a girl he used to know.

Mtime网友:这个题材,做成这样,真的很不容易了。尤其是,影片在影像上非常有特点,大量的特写镜头、跟拍、手持,以及碎片式剪辑,营造出强烈的恐慌与不安感。这种情绪,其实就是角色在片中的情绪,它以影像的方式,最直接延伸给观众。
丢豆网网友:一个好的导演,是会调教演员的,知道演员的优势在哪里。《有要问本的问题吗?》像极了一道来自异域的夏日甜品,虽然不是主菜的配置,但却也有着勾人的独特风情。坦白说,最初的确是冲着罗波 斯提齐 导演的名号看的,毕竟人家讲故事的功力摆在那里,但一开始就入了坑也是我怎么都没料到的。
豆瓣网网友:放在豆瓣语境下,是部时至今日终于拍出来的其它 “高分喜剧片”。拿现实题材拍商业类型片,社会意义摆在那,群戏也处理得相当不错。对其它 而言,这样的电影多一部是一部,走一步是一步。
