Alright, I watched it. I have no idea what you expect, but it's basically a fairly non-linear film with a hard to explain narrative that really doesn't make any sense anyway. The style, for the most part, is good. The editting and the slow-motion in particular are excellnt, whereas the quality of the costumes, not so much. It's completely humourless, and attempts to create a very dark and mysterious world. The first problem with that is that it's just a bit cheesy in terms of the way the actors look and some of the special effects. The second problem is that the quality of the print wasn't great, and therefore it didn't really have a crisp, dark look. Not sure if it didn't when it came out, but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. The film reminded me of a prog rock music video, albeit a fairly good one. Either way, anyone that would pay $80 for the film is insane.
