This movie was a heaping pile of artsy shit if I ever saw one. Lots of sex and violence everywhere, but no real clear message other than this: That couple went insane. Great! They're crazy. It's not that interesting though, certainly not interesting enough to hold ones attention for two hours. Ideas never really connected, and dialogue was like broken sentences said at whim of each character. No one ever really understood each other, I believe. And by no one, I mean neither of the only two characters in the movie (another recipe for BORING). They were shapeless and chaotic, having the feel of far too many artsy films before this movie. LET'S MAKE IT PSYCHOLOGICAL! No, that is not an automatic formula for good. I reject it. I am tired of it. Things need to happen. Reason for these things needs to be present. Enough of this blur of ugly feelings. I want a real story.
