Strangely Entrancing, And Just Plain Weird
dommercaldi3 May 2020
Pros: 1. The film is incredibly unique in a bizarre kind-of-way, and it's strangely captivating as a result. 2. There are myriad beautiful shots, and overall the movie is aesthetically pleasing. 3. The soundtrack is great and is implemented with brilliant timing. 4. The whale sounds help to add a suitably eerily disturbing and ethereal atmosphere.

Cons: 1. The film, unsurprisingly, is obnoxiously pretentious and makes very little sense as it relies more on the abstract. 2. The movie, even with the relatively short run-time, starts to drag around just over halfway through. 3. With a lack of a traditional plot and characters, it's exceedingly difficult to be fully immersed in the movie.

An Absolute Waste of 84 Minutes of your Life. Avoid.

Awful. Simply awful.From the random woman screaming, to the absolute pseud with his verbal diahorrea about small hills, to the exploitation of a clearly tired and bored disabled performer being ignored for the sake of some extra footage on a random beach at twilight. Thin gruel.

Extremely boring.

So boring that I gave up 20 minutes before the end. Couldn't care less.
