1/10
Pretentious Twaddle
11 October 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I really can't believe the reviews given this - film is such a high falutin' word in this context - utter twaddle.

For a while I thought I was losing my sight as everything takes places in shadows and inept lighting.

Squinting at the screen gave me a massive headache.

There is no plot, just the pained anxious face of Jake ambling through most scenes along dim murky corridors, purposeless.

Is it a dream? Is it his alter ego?

I decided I didn't care a whit for the outcome or the passionless sex or sad Jake at podiums talking nonsense at an empty lecture hall.

I gave up. Jake? Seriously! This is not art. It's not anything. It's pretence at art house or whatever.

Yikes!

0/10.
