Reviewhad high hopes for this one. saw the preview a while back and thought it looked really good. finally got around to seeing it in the theater after the hype built up a bit and was disappointed.
i get some of the social commentary and symbolism, but i must be missing a lot. the ending wasn’t particularly shocking or cathartic or scary. overall it was an interesting journey that took me to a place the left me wanting more. i just wasn’t that into it. i don’t know where it wanted me to go or what i was supposed to get out of it, but i didn’t get there. Disappointing.
