Luminal

Oh dear. Although at times visually beautiful, with some nice production design and interesting costumes, this is a painfully bad exercise in style over substance. It is pretentious in the extreme, with some of the worst dialogue I've heard in years. The wafer-thin narrative follows several irritating and artfully screwed-up characters drifting from scene to scene and whining that their lives are just a "streak of s***ty brown". In all, it is pointless and shallow, and one to avoid.
