Movie made entirely out of symbolism

Rating: 7/10 (17 August 2018)

It's not the most watchable movie I've seen because the pacing is really slow, and because of other stuff.
Great effects.
Aesthetically pleasing.
Plot: what plot. "the film is so steeped in symbolism and tone rather than character and plot." So it was hard to comprehend why the characters were acting the way they were.
Superb acting from Javier Bardem and Jennifer Lawrence. Javier played up the role of the oblivious otherworldly husband really well, while Jennifer set the entire mood of the movie with just the subtle turns of emotions in her eyes, from annoyance, disbelief and sadness to dread, terror and hopelessness. Kinda impressive.
Gotta give it another point for the authenticity.
