Me neither, not sure if it was the dialog or him in a few scenes, but it came off as hammy in many scenes.

Jennifer Jason Leigh easily had the movie's best performance. To see her go from a racist, ruthless, desperate criminal to a bubbly, yet lonely shyster in Anomalisa was just breathtaking.

God, I loved that movie's soundtrack - it simply added more tone and depth to what was already a captivating experience.
