Regarding the tone
Anyone else feels weirded out by the sudden change of tone near the end of the movie? I understand this film is trying to be a roller-coaster ride but this has been bothering me.
The movie starts out as a casual little tale about infidelity (and morality in general). But towards the end, it's no longer "casual" at all, it's *heavy* drama. And by the point you realize that what happens in this movie is all "serious business", you kind of feel that the light-hearted tone this movie gave us in the beginning is... out of place. Kinda inappropriate too. I mean, this is a story about how nice people can do VERY BAD things, this is tragedy for God's sake.
My question is, would you rather this movie had gone all serious, brooding tone from the start? That kind of film that really affects you and doesn't leave you for days after watching it? This could be a very moving and thought-provoking movie, the story has this potential. (Well, in a way, it IS moving and thought-provoking now, but I just cannot take this film seriously as a whole because of how it was packaged).
And I read some reviews. So I notice tonal issue has always been one of this film's major problem.
P.S. I wish someone can add "drama" for the genre of this movie.
