I was really hyped for this movie, but so, so disappointed after leaving the theater. An excellent soundtrack and promising trailer aside - it was dreary, tedious, confusing, overly long, and utterly ridiculous by the end. I'm a fan of art films and slow movies in general, but trust me when I tell you that there's nothing redeeming about this 2.5 hours of dreck. Do yourself a favor and avoid this one. It's not a case of this reviewer "not getting it" or thinking "it's just not to this guys's taste" - it's simply clunky and poorly constructed. You'll be bored and entirely indifferent to the mess of plot by the time credits roll. I'll give it one star for Thom Yorke's worthy contribution.
