What do people see in this?

Rating: 3/10 (4 May 2002)

Why people rave about this movie is beyond me. Yes, the acting was relatively good, and the scenes themselves were artfully done, but as a movie, it falls far short. When one watches a movie, you should leave the experience with an idea of what went on. With Mulholland Drive, who knows what happened. Is it all a dream? Are parts of it real and others imagined? Or more likely, did a director with too much time on his hands make a series of unrelated scenes and put them together and call it a movie? Seems like the latter is the most realistic, mainly since many reviews of the movie even admit this. This isn't art, or a movie, it's a self-serving piece by a director who can't weave a storyline.
