Interesting, weird and baffling

Rating: 6/10 (20 June 2009)

I'm not a film buff so I have a fairly simple entertainment based approach to movies. Mulholland Drive is a hard one to judge. It keeps you interested throughout with a number of interwoven plots and a dash of suspense. I managed to stay up past 2am watching this, so it not a 'boring' movie. My main problem with this film is the last half hour, where Mulholland Drive becomes hard to follow. The whole dream bit was a bit lost on me (maybe I was dreaming) and as the movie ended I was left with a sense of what the 'you know what.' An interesting movie that looks and sounds great throughout, unfortunately weakened by a baffling and unsatisfying conclusion.
