Well I don't know what to think.

Rating: Null/10 (23 June 2004)

I have looked through the threads searching for a stance on this film that I agree with. To be honest I am not sure of what to think of it. I find myself thinking back to certain scenes and thinking that this movie portrayed real life extremely well. The characters are very natural and realistic. The story was very simple in an arbitrary sort of way. The odd thing is that during the film I was not that impressed. I felt as if it was very slow moving and almost tedious to watch. Strangely I find myself wanting to like this movie. And I think that I do. In one of the threads it is mentioned that realists will have trouble getting this film...Well I am a realist, and although I did understand this movie it took some time to think back and see how I really felt about it. I have only seen it once so maybe it is one of those films that improve when you watch it over and over again. I'm sure that the watching it for the second time around will reveal things that I may not have noticed the first time. If any one feels the same way about this film, please reply. I would love to hear what you thought about it. P.S. I loved movies like Donnie Darko, Mulholand Drive, and American Beauty, so its not that I don't appreciate artsy/filmfestival_type films.
