This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
