It wanted to be so much more than it was
What it was though was an utter mess. I've never seen a movie skitter through so many tonal shifts, not to mention the space time continuum, and to what end? The movie seems to have its fans but I was left scratching my head as to what I was suppose to take away from it. Some reviews mention that the mess of its disjointed parts comes together in the last 10 minutes yet I found myself just being more confounded and confused. It was a mood piece that relied on "atmospheric" music, weird editing and lighting to impart significance to a cinematic fever dream about nothing. Another unforgivable aspect is that there must be around 10 minutes worth of repeated vignettes of scenes that are dropped in at various junctures to, again I ask, what end? Its final sin...it was boring.
