This comment is not coming from a film buff, but rather from a college-age girl who likes to watch weird stuff on a big screen. So I've seen my fair share of "original" movies, and this one was quite possibly the most original of them. A lot of other comments have given meaning to the film; I'm glad, because I walked out of the theater desperately in need of meaning to justify the scenes that I watched (both in their violence and in their confusion). If anything, I'll say that the film had value in creating ideas that wouldn't have come to anyone's mind otherwise. It's also fascinating in the sense that, although it shows porn, it's decidedly not porn, and the distinction is one that I wouldn't have pondered on my own. As for a final meaning, I'd say that it's one of those films that's either completely brilliant or completely ridiculous - either way, it's not coming to me. But maybe it's better that way... Anyway, brilliance aside, get ready to cover your eyes during the last scene...
