Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean its over your head

Rating: 1/10 (20 January 2008)

What a waste of time! I realize that most movies do not live up to the hype or promotion but I had to look several times during the viewing to see if I read the right description. While I appreciate the cinematography and imagery of the film, it still really sucked as a movie. I spent the first hour wondering how they would tie all the ethereal visual crapola together into something resembling coherency, then when I realized they were not even going to try I began to wonder how they would end it gracefully. Guess what?? They didn't. And by that point I was not even surprised.
Then what I found even more discouraging was reading the reviews here. What a bunch of bung. All those pompous morons who haven't a clue what the movie was about going on and on about how graceful and artistic it was. "I didn't understand exactly what it was about but it must have been good!" Maybe, it was just incoherent babble!! If I ever have to sit through it again I will turn the sound down and treat it like art, just slightly more mobile. And slightly less interesting.
It would be really nice if people gave honest opinions here, good, bad, or indifferent. If a movie sucks, you can say so without flaming it or being obscene about it. People have a right to know. This movie should not be anywhere near the 7.6 rating it has, even if those that could not watch it all the way through did not bother to vote.
