The movie was a pure masterpiece. Details were plenty for the eager-to- notice viewer, and provided great narrative and hints for the plot. Nothing is unimportant and this lively yet lonely world, and the more attention you pay to the smallest things, the more this movie makes sense. The music score was fantastic and at times it really flooded me with emotions. The plot has you thinking of all the possibilities that could have been true or not, and as such it's a fulfilling experience, one to be discussed for much time after the screening. As long as you have a vivid fantasy, you'll enjoy this movie and really think about it. The only setback is that at times it grew tiring and could use 10 minutes less time. Absolutely recommend! 9/10

An utterly disappointing film.

So the summary seemed great. Too bad this was nowhere in the movie. How does this movie show the struggle of the father trying to recconect with his daughter? Other than being an immature middle-aged man, he does nothing but ruin his daughter's business connections, her meetings and the job she had so carefully fought for, by appearing EVERYWHERE and lying to everyone. The business scenes were way too many and way too tiring, but served as the only normal scenes in the film. Other than that, total chaos. By the end of the film we realise how damaged, lonely and obsessed the daughter is with her career. The acting was excellent though, even by the supporting actors, plus a few moments seemed so delicately designed.
