1 hour in my dad turned back and said “i don’t know about this movie” and my mom said “where did you even find this”
this movie plays like a bad headache album. pacing is all over the place, which is intentional, but feels a bit messy more often than it seems to serve a purpose. direct snappy dialogue is fun at times, detracts from crucial need to understand characters at others.
attempts to capture the struggle to make sense of life, the sense of his longing for the past and a better existence that will never come. how each person’s existence is unique, and that we cannot truly know what it is like to be someone else, but we can and do long for it. we are all waiting waiting for an aha moment to bring clarity, and watching life slip before us.
if this is the thesis, why have you made it impossible to connect to any character? you can call that piece art, that life is also disconnected from others, but to me it is lazy and a cop out.
i watched this movie, hoping and waiting for a payoff, and guess what it didn’t come. too meta to be enjoyable or leave an impact if that’s the point of the movie.
the thesis is great, delivered by the actor priest near the end and in part by the woman over the ear piece, but unfortunately i think this movie could have been that scene as a poem. or just make this movie better!
