Featured Comments/Tips
I have to admit I liked it much more than anticipated. It was a very eerie and slow paced lynchian psychological thriller with a surprising story and an amazing John Turturro. This movie is more like a vibe. I can understand why some maybe are a little bit underwhelmed by it, but it's not a reason to bring a whole film company down. I really enjoyed it and I have to give it some extra credit because it's my kind of movie and I think it's slept on for people enjoying some anxious, sad and solitary strolling though our world searching for meaning, closure or absolution. It gives more than it shows, and it definitely will stay with me for a while.
