2.5/5

Number One is a difficult film to embrace, not least because [the protagonist] is such a wholly detestable wretch. While the story’s fantastical conceit provides a reason for his behaviour, it can only excuse it so far.

This movie drains your emotions. It’s filled with sadness and joy, it makes me feel like a child, a parent, and a lover all at once. I can't imagine being restricted from ever eating my mother’s or maybe my wife’s cooking again.
