Retarded.


So, don't get me wrong, I don't like when plots are spoon fed or themes laid out like the audience is full of morons, but this movie was so frustratingly stupid I was saying, "Please just end already," twenty minutes before it finally did.

I just find it annoying when directors and writers decide to make a movie that masquerades as "smart" and allegorical, but really has no plot to speak of save the one that the writer has in MIND as he writes the endless symbolism with no clue as to what it symbolizes in the film itself. A commentary shouldn't be necessary for someone to understand a film. But hey, that's my opinion.

I just felt like 90% of it was hokey, rather than deep. It's one thing to write a story that has a powerful theme, it's another to create a theme that has no story.

I've watched some 50 minutes of this thing and it's time to give up.
