'Frank' is a story of odd musicians each coping with their own mental and emotional hindrances, all while attempting to cooperate long enough to become the great artistic band they strive to be. The group is plagued by this constant trouble, yet they still manage to squeeze out a few heavily unique tunes. Quirky and slightly dark humor coincide to an almost upbeat vibe for the first half. It's enjoyable. The second half ditches the humor almost entirely and borderlines on depressing. It never fully tips in either direction through the whole duration. The bittersweet ending lost some of it's emotional punch for me because of this. Worth watching for the supreme originality and unconventional characters.
