I actually just watched the first half of this movie for the first time tonight.
Had to pause it to let my dog out and now go to bed. Not sure about finishing it. That’s just me.
You’re missing out. It’s a slow boil, but then it kicks into gear. Not to mention that everything else at the beginning makes sense and has callbacks. It’s such a thrilling ride!
Idk after a certain point the weirdness just becomes an excuse for tricking the Academy into giving awards to a movie that delivered half of its emotional journey through exposition.
And it worked, dammit, I DID want a refutation of nihilism told through anal dildo kung fu, it turns out.

Big waste of oscars that one.
Honestly, it’s fine. If the humor doesn’t click with you it could be a struggle.
It didn’t click with me, either. I think it’s fine, but it’s a weird one to have been the mainstream hit that it was.
Two words: Chekov’s Buttplug

It takes a solid 45 minutes before it even begins to get rolling, and by the end it’s absolute pandemonium. It’s wonderful.
Here’s what you do: watch act 1 sober, then when act 2 starts you pause the movie and take three big ass bong rips and press play.
You understand the universe!
That movie is such a rollercoaster you owe it to yourself to finish. It’s just an accelerating spiral of weirdness.

Yeah but I think if you average out “direct exposition” and “mind-boggling WTF” You come out in a good place.
