I have never seen such a movie homerun. I don’t take into account the fact that the creators tried to be, perhaps intentionally, brutally amateur in some scenes. With the emphasis on perhaps. In some other scenes, on the other hand, they put on a decent show. But it’s all at the expense of the story, which uses different perspectives to present one scene, which connects everything in such a way that you can’t even begin to imagine it. And there’s the brutal strike when you’re telling to yourself that this must have been shot by a total nutjob. Or a person who knew very well what he was doing. That’s why I’m rating this with three stars – I can’t see inside the creator’s head, but I still perceive this movie as something I’ll probably never see again. ()
An interesting mosaic, where several stories are gradually solved, which have one culmination. It is not completely Tarantino-like, definitely not. From a storytelling point of view, it is distinctive, and it is actually only about how each character gets to that one moment. It is well thought-out and the form is more interesting than the film itself. Yes, there are quite rough scenes, but they usually don't really affect you. Otherwise, there is constant talking here. And there is really a lot of talking. Two wanderers who want to enjoy their lives, a little philosophizing girl, a couple who may be falling in love. But we know how it ends. But true, we don't know how it ends for everyone. Or is the truth out there somewhere? The twist at the end is quite interesting, but as a whole, unfortunately, the film is quite disruptive. ()
