RATING: 3.5 / 5

COMMENTS:
This is another one of those films that I would consider less of a
drama and more of an experimental / art piece because it focuses less
on a coherent story and more on an idea and/or message through it's
sound and imagery. The pacing of the editing and the creative ways the
film transitions from one scene to the next keeps the viewing
experience alive and pumping all the way to its end. But the end
cheats the viewer from all that it strives to be because it occurs
completely out of the context of the rest of the film. Granted the
meat of the film is very loosely held together by some sense of story
but the film relies too heavily on the all too familiar "split
personality" theme and doesn't make an original statement about it.
All said and done the film is entertaining to watch but plateaus on
its ability to connect emotionally and intellectually.
