I was looking forward to this film not only because it sounded conceptual and innovative and showing great commitment from the crew, but also because of the hype, the great reviews, the positive response from the public.
Maybe I had high expectations and maybe I thought it will be thought provoking, moving, intelligent and engaging.
Sadly, it was nothing of the sort.
I don't mind that the film has no plot, however the stories, the dialogue, the characters are simply flat - as if the products of a stoned mind. There was nothing profound nor authentic in any of the 'deep' lines served by the characters.
Some of the scenes were painfully cringing and cliché - like the one where the builder from an ethnic minority speaking with a strong accent returns at the end of the film as a manager of some restaurant (it seemed) and thanks the mum for being an inspiration.
Unfortunately, not a believable cinematic experience. Shame.
