How much like The Long Goodbye is Inherent Vice? I watched TLG for the first time a month or two ago, and found the whole thing pretty insufferable once Marlowe's cat left the movie.

I would say heavily alike. Similar setting and meandering plot and laid-back vibe going on, although I think I preferred The Long Goodbye. Marlowe is an inherently different protagonist though.

While we're on this topic, here's a promo for the book thought to be possibly narrated by Pynchon himself.

Sounds similar but he might be putting on a voice.
