This movie is not more than 'ok'. Here's why.

This movie is okay. It's an okay watch, but nothing more. Why do I need to write this? I mean, I'm okay with people having their own taste - so why? Well, primarly because I feel sad that people fool themselves when it comes to this movie.


My arguments? I share them with well-known critics.

First of all: It's like a poem. And you can always overrate a poem. And, trust me, you can always interpret more than the "creator" intended. People tend to do that. Sure, you cannot prove that. But try it yourselves. Write a poem in twenty minutes and give it to ten learned friends. You'll see how many different things they'll say about it if you're just ambigous enough, even though you only spent 20 minutes with it. They'll most likely overrate it and interpret things you never intended. That's because they think that there's more to it. Sadly, in this case, there isn't anything to it. It's not more than just "okay".

1. Underwritten characters. Couldn't care less for any of them.

2. The ending is unconvincing and far-fetched.

3. Being too artful isn't always good. This movie tries too hard to become a cult classic, and when it becomes too obvious it just destroys the mood. Not okay.

4. Too long, often completely aimless, a so-so script with plenty of plotholes.

=====================

Now, this doesn't mean that you can't enjoy the movie. I mean, it's okay. But hey, please don't overrate. It's not fair.
