    I was amazed at this movie and I stood up without feeling and then started with applause and clapped hard for the stupidest movie l've ever seen, the movie is stupid. If someone came to you and said to you in the past, people would walk on their hands and eat with their feet. Do you believe him or do you see him as a liar? This thing applies to this movie. He talks about something that does not exist. They consider this film to be the strongest response to actions that occurred only in their delusions, and they speak of a cause that does not exist. This movie is a message to a community that doesn't exist, they send their messages to their imaginations, it's crazy.
