It's a shame this isn't being discussed more

I know I'll get a lot of backlash for saying this, but I honestly feel like this is one of the most important films to come along in a long while. From the point of view of filmmaking, I think that it evolves the whole art of movies in a way that very few movies have in a while. It reminded me a lot of The Passenger. It seems to have uniformly negative reviews all across the board, but I suspect that, years from now, scholars will look back at this and it will seem remarkable that it had no attention when it first came out.

It definitely was a hard movie to sit through, because it demanded full and complete attention, and it seemed to paint a picture of a bunch of characters who are living in the world at a different level of perception or awareness than the general public, and we are seeing it from the inside...not from the pov of outsiders looking in. I don't know if I'm explaining it well or making sense, but this movie impacted me so strongly, and I can't get it out of my head after seeing it last night, so I just want to attempt to explain why I feel like that and see if anyone has similar thoughts.

It was like all the characters in the movie are in on some secret about how to read signs of the times, or about how the world really works, and exist outside of the normal world of our perception, yet they exist in the same space as all of us. The characters in the movie have evolved their awareness of what life is, and have caught on to patterns of the universe and are waging an epic war to try to prevent other people from controling the world.

I looked back on what I wrote and I think I made it too simplistic...but anyway, this movie really effected me and I'm disappointed that I can't seem to find any critics who even attempt to really understand what the film is presenting to us. And I think it's wrong to compare it to David Lynch...it may be surreal, but it is not like some strange dream, it is something completely on a different level than what david lynch does. I would compare it more to Antonioni films, like The Passenger. The characters are almost like the characters in the passenger, except that in LImits, the characters have more of an awareness of what the angst is that leads Jack Nicholson's character in The Passenger.

If you've seen the passenger, maybe you'll get what I'm saying. Anyway, thanks for reading this rant if you made it this far, and let me know what you think!
