What's your poison?

I read another review where the reviewer was telling us how good and strange the movie is ... but only gave it 5 out of 10. Which is kind of strange, because the things he was admiring, are objectively good. So while I am giving this movie the full score for its scope and for the fact it does not take any prisoners and dares to go places others are not going, I do understand that this won't be for everyone - in fact, quite a few will not like this.

That doesn't mean that the movie is bad, quite the opposite. It is slow (so keep that in mind) and it does seem to switch gears halfway through. The first half being almost about something else. But not really, because it is a setup. And it is also allowing for repeat viewings. There is so much to discover and there are so many questions left for the viewer to answer for themself. If you like that concept and like being challenged, like a movie that works with images/colors and knows the craft of direction and mystery storytelling, this is the movie to watch for you
