I respect it for trying to be different but it didn't work.


It didn't work, at least for me it didn't work. It was boring as F.

Hmmm... maybe you're doing it wrong? Sex shouldn't be boring...

Agreed, I tried watching it and gave up about half an hour in. It felt like a bad student film more than anything. Note to future filmmakers, slow does NOT mean depth!!!

Yep, that's it, it felt like a student film experiment.

I respectfully disagree. Saw it last night and I thought it was incredibly moving and the most original film I’ve seen in years.

5/5 for me

It was OK. A bit slow and hipster but has a nice mood. 6.5-7.0 / 10

I HATED IT...IT BORED ME TO DEATH...UNTIL IT DIDN'T...AND THEN I LOVED IT...A COUPLE YEARS LATER AND IT IS STILL FRESH AND RESONANT IN MY HEAD.

Experimental, yes. Slow, but glad I saw it. Some big ideas going on.
