*To give my absolutely honest opinion, this is a film I actually wouldn’t recommend checking out to watch for yourselves overall. The plotline left me with unanswered questions, there are plenty of long dialogue scenes with irrelevant jargon, other scenes didn’t seem to belong in the film, and I didn’t think the film really had an ending. Perhaps its just me, or maybe there was symbolism that I didn’t get from watching it, but it is one of my least favorite films I have.*
