Review of Slipstream

Slipstream (2007)
another case of self-indulgent grandiose babble
4 April 2008
The viewer is immediately dropped into a world of psychotic abstract-reality. Apparently the production team thought that viewers would be so committed that they would want to continue the experience. Honestly, it's quite annoying.

Yes if you are bored and wish to simply let the movie run and not invest much emotional empathy or care, eventually the experience might become meaningful. But-- why?!?!? Why would we the viewers have that expectation put upon us? The characters start with no introduction, no character-development, and some vague stuttered-effect hint of what is happening and what is to come. Make us care. They do not.
