The Worst Film Ever

Rating: 1/10 (1 December 2006)

I am totally shocked that anyone in their right mind is sitting here raving about the hidden genius of this film while I have never been so ready to leave the theater.
I like to enjoy a film on two levels; first, being in the movie and being entertained by the story, secondly analyzing hidden messages and symbolism after the film. It bothers me that anyone can appreciate the second without the first.
The fact is, this movie is hard to watch. It is weird, it skips around, you don't know enough about any of characters to care if they live or die, and well, half the movie takes place in a bubble floating though space where a guy is nursing a tree with hair. And what did you like about this movie?
Furthermore, I have read people's comments about the supposed "brilliant" symbolism of the movie. OK, so these stories are connected, after death they are together, the tree represents the life and the 12 tribes of Israel, the main characters are Adam and Evem and after death they are together.... WHO CARES? First of all, no symbolism or meaning in this movie is original. We've seen these themes thousands of times! The fact is there are a million movies you can draw the same end meaning from that are actually watchable! It hurts me that people try so hard to be intellectuals that they actually pretend to like this. It is like when someone takes a crap in a bag, puts it in an art museum, and then people sit around marveling at its significance.
