This collection of people sitting around was art; it wasn't a film, and it wasnt a collection of short stories.
This was a disjointed, awkward, and horribly bland.
I understand it as art, but don't understand how anyone got anything philosophical or social out of it.
I gave it a 5/10, just for the Cate Blanchett dual role, and the GZA/RZA/Bill Murray segment.
You seem to think all of those labels are mutually exclusive, but they're not. This was a film, by the very basic definition. It was also a set of shorts(which comprised the film), and was artistic in its message and presentation. Who's to say that art cannot be philosophical or social? Your message implies that in a big way, which is patently false.
That doesn't mean your obligated to like or enjoy it, but please think about what you're saying, and whether or not it is valid or makes any sense. Because it isn't, and it doesn't.
I hope you found other things you like better, though. Seriously. Cheers!
Hey, look! It's my new signature!
