It just is

Rating: Null/10 (18 April 2000)

Okay, I saw this film with my friend Eldebo, and some of my comments match his. If you've already read his comments, I'm sorry for the redundancy, but here goes.......
At some point in this movie, I realized that I couldn't tell whether or not this was a good movie, I couldn't tell whether or not this was bad movie, all I could tell was that it was f@#!ed up. I saw this movie a few weeks before my 25th birthday, and I can say that in my (at that time) almost 25 years of life I have never seen a movie which affected me so much, that I was left utterly numb and my brain barely functioning. I seriously actually had to concentrate on such things as walking and talking, my brain was so numb, I could barely do anything but sit down. And no movie I've seen since has so numbed my brain. I was going through my last semester in college when I saw the film, and I kept thinking about that when watching this movie, and the possibility that it would force me further down the spiral, and if I would have to give up even more of my sanity. Also, if you are familiar with the game, Mage: The Ascension, I kept thinking if I was feeling what people feel when they awaken (I hate to use such an obscure reference, but it's the best one that fits). And probably the most messed up thing is that the movie didn't present me with anything new, anything I didn't know already, or anything I hadn't already thought of.
