Slow, confused, overly-hyped crap from male-dominated Hollywood

Rating: 3/10 (20 May 2002)

Once a man such as David Lynch makes a name for himself in Hollywood he no longer has to create a movie that tells a story. This movie is a confused, non-sensical combination of "thoughts" that was presumably admired by critics because of the beautiful filmmaking -- AND there is some beauty in this film that earned my 3 rating. However, the slow-moving plot (?) crept along and tried my patience. The lesbian sex scenes were well done, however, without being couched in a logical plot with some explanation, they came off as voyeuristic eye-candy that would unquestionably appeal to male-dominated Hollywood moguls. This movie is not thought provoking. You may find yourself talking about it the next day, but such conversations are NOT due to enjoyment and interested curiosity, but frustration and confusion.
