This is a great film. It walks that fine line between comedy and thriller that only this director seems to pull off. The comedy is almost absurd and genuinely funny, and yet it never compromises the tension, indeed it kind of adds to it as we are never quite sure what is going on.
Small details, small points in the plot that seem like one shot elements actually turn out to be crucial. There were a few seemingly random things in the story which i took little notice of as they were said, that actually turned into important things. And the way they were delivered was so underplayed and yet so memorable that when the follow up point or reveal came i was mightily impressed.
The script is tight. The film is beautiful. The atmosphere is intangible, always somewhere between humour, mystery, madness. I'll be waiting for his next film.
