Worth the work

Some people don't want to have to do any work when they watch a movie, and others are excited by movies that make them work. I'm in the second group. From the moment my brain first said "What the **** is going on?", I was hooked. This movie is both utterly depressing and utterly exciting at the same time. Watching it, I often felt like I was losing my mind, but I loved it for that very reason. There are so many "psychological thrillers" that fail because they are just being "psychological" for the sake of being "psychological." But it was clear to me that this movie had a purpose. So don't give up. And if you get to the end and still don't understand, watch the first five minutes again. Or watch the entire movie again. And again. There's nothing wrong with movies that you have to watch multiple times to understand. This is one of those movies. If you want to be challenged, it's a must-see. If you don't want to be challenged, it's a must-avoid.
