what a pretentious time waster of a film... some scenes are unnecessary like the sxx scene & crxp...it's delusional to think of this movie as something that has "depth"....

Bromidic tedium interspersed with mildly amusing vignettes. Billed as a comedy. I think the extra-long scenes were intended to generate discomfort in the audience, but the attempt failed, repeatedly unfortunately. I had expected a lampoon of political correctness from the synopses I read, but that never occurred. Instead I saw a scattershot portrayal of weakness in people and it wasn't funny.

I realize there is a niche for this type of cinema...and had the promoters of the film been honest....we would not be reading angry reviews. If the names Elisabeth Moss and Dominic West didn't jump out and slap one in the face when they both in total had approximately 20 minutes on screen.... If the genre was listed correctly....COMEDY??? Where? Either I no longer possess a funny bone or the definition of the word has changed.... This movie is far, far from mainstream and viewers should have been given a heads-up with proper identification markers. If your work is good, if you have faith in your product there is no need for Trickery.

Like almost everyone else reviewing here, my wife and I found this way, way too long. Maybe 45 minutes too long. Maybe an hour. Scene after scene we found ourselves remarking to each other, "what was the point of that?" Just one example: the scene with the ape street performer ran for something like 7-8 minutes. We thought it could have been done in a fraction of that and nothing would have been lost. Then I later thought they could have done without it entirely and I'm not sure anything would have been lost. The scene with the museum director given the speech on the steps of the foyer? What was the point? What did it add? Nothing that we could see. Scene after scene we turned to each other and asked the same question. So instead of being a tight 1:30 to 1:45 movie, this ran on for a tedious 2 and a half hours. I have a personal rule of thumb when it comes to films. Movies that are written and directed by the same person are so often self-indulgent. I'm going to have to amend that to: movies written, directed and edited by the same person are invariably self-indulgent and way too long. A good director here would have told the writer what was wrong with the script and suggested what needed to be rewritten. A good editor would have gone back to the director and told him that it was running too long and that by cutting this or that that the result would have been better. Unfortunately this film has, needless to say, the same person in all three roles. and as a result, it's way too long and was just tedious. Sorry, but I just don't understand the rave reviews some have given this. Yes, this is ALMOST a good film. But only ALMOST.

The only thing I like about this movie is that it is a criticism of the absurdity that can sometimes result in many eyes, the art world. If the fact that someone says it, it means that something is already good. The problem is that it is the same thing that happens to the film, due to the fact that they do it, it does not have to be good and for my taste it is not. It has many script failures, the protagonist is presented and half a movie, we learn part of his life that we did not know, which on the other hand, does not count anything in the rest of the film. Start topics that do not end. Many things are known. Let's not mention the moments of endless abstract art. It seems that they will never end. The movie goes from one place to another and you do not know what rumba it takes. It is not defined nor has the course marked. The actors, they are not, they vary but you do not know where. Photography is beautiful, yes, but you do not know where it is going, so you do not know if it's good or not, since you do not know what you want to tell you. The direction, since there is a lot of film left, does not know what bores, does not know how to put the camera where it should go. He does not know how to leave the medium or general plane. I do not know what he wants to tell me. I think you have other better things to do in two hours twenty.
