Mixed Feelings
I was expecting to like this movie. I am a fan of surrealism and of the art movie genre in general. I was sorely disapointed however. Despite all of the rave reviews and excitement around it I could never seem to get myself into the film. At first I tried to analyze every piece of it and work it into some overall theme. The problem is when it comes right down to it there is no theme or overall message present in the movie. It comes off as a jumbled mess of half ideas like they were sitting at the drawing board and decided this scene would look really good here. I was lefting feeling like the creators had no idea in mind and that the movie had no message. Thinking I must be wrong and missing something of valuable importance I looked into it further and once again tried to analyze it but found a few scattered thoughts but nothing tangible. Finally I went to the source and tried to see what the director had to say and found that there was no meaning behind it and even the creator admits they put stuff in there just to mess with people leaving it up for the watcher to create their own meaning. In short sorely disapointed that I spent so much of my time on the film. I will give it a six out of ten simply because despite the lack of meaning I still did manage to find it to be a mildly entertaining the first time around.
