You only watched 15 minutes! 😄

Lol, I saw that too.

I would like to know this as well. Just re-watched it but it's still just a messy piece of pretentious crap.

I always seem to enjoy non-linear type stories, so I liked this one. Also why I like the book Slaughterhouse-5. I ain't no movie snob either, I just like the effect these types have on my brainular region.

Slaughterhouse-5 is much the better book.

Never seen it but didn't like the book so probably never going to. I thought the book was science fiction for people who don't read science fiction.

Sounds about right for me. Are you saying it should be higher or lower?

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

lower

I didn't want to assume.

I thought it was really good, fascinating ideas, and had a unique and stylish execution. A couple of the stories were a bit draggy, but overall really great - just perhaps not quite in the superlative categories. So, 7-8 seems okay to me.
