This is a difficult film to decide on whether I liked it or not.
The technical aspect and the fairly abstract narrative are something to appreciate. It's not a standard silent film, in fact it may be the first film to do a fourth wall break as a darker twisted sense of humor, which might have gotten a great reaction from the audience way back when 100 years ago. Or perhaps not and could have seen it as pretentious or even a bore.
It's pacing might be its biggest flaw. I appreciate the score and visuals. But sometimes it's too much and overbearing that it becomes a distraction.
Watch it if you'd like, I won't again.
5/10.
