Chuck Dowling’s review:
If you're not prepared for this film, there's a barrier to entry that can last upwards of 20-30 minutes. Its hyper sense of style is quite something, and in the end is the film's biggest strength. The direction is a wonder to behold, with concepts and ideas coming together that I couldn't even begin to comprehend how to plan out, let alone film. That's good because the clever writing is at times too clever, and could potentially get annoying based on your mood at the time. Still, repeat viewings are probably in order, and I would imagine that my rating will only go up afterwards.
