It is confusing and doesnt easily come together. :( You put it well - "It’s a feel-wheeling puzzle that is continually easy on the eyes and taxing on the brain. It’s also about as original as movies come, for better or worse." Rotten Tomatoes blurb worthy right there.

Though it's quite long, I never noticed. And I totally agree on the cast, technicals, and scope. Right now, it's close to being my favorite film film of the year, but I HAVE to see it again. It's like nothing I've seen this year, which is great.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08596682195753811295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-79929078795112246062012-11-03T10:39:34.351-04:002012-11-03T10:39:34.351-04:00so it is MATRIX repeats... most people didn't ...so it is MATRIX repeats... most people didn't know what that one was about either :)<br />I kinda knew it will be a boxoffice flop as soon as they cast Halle Berry, who is a curse to any film.... <br />Still, would love to see it for the visuals.
