i've read every other review thus far submitted...

Rating: Null/10 (8 June 2010)

and i agree with all of them... the pans and the praises...all. i can understand why some loved its originality and some thought it wholly unoriginal. why some loved the soundtrack and some were put off by it. this movie doesn't allow for a firm foothold, alas. and that's hard for some, going through an intense two hour cinematic/storytelling journey and never feeling like ones feet are touching solid ground. very disorienting. still...i feel like the writer/director hit his mark with every shot he took. and that it is not for those who don't want to work to expand their definition of what good storytelling can be. works of genius are rarely appreciated in their own time. not totally true here, but enough so for me to make these comments... if you make the trip, you may not fully understand where you've been, but you will have no doubt feel as if you've traveled the expanse of time/creation.
