It’s a weird movie, this. There are a lot of positive things I could say about it in terms of the experience it offers. It’s tense, atmospheric, mysterious, jarringly violent and it keeps you off balance the whole time. But in terms of narrative it leaves you wanting in such a big way that it’s maybe the most frustrated I’ve been by a movie in a long time.
I won’t run it down for daring to be different because a lot of it works, but the truth is that when I think of this movie in future I know I’m going to remember my dissatisfaction with the ending more than the positives that came before it.
