I digest films the same way I digest food: Quickly and
without it even touching the sides. I make it a point not to toot my own horn
where I can, but when I comes to films, I often pride myself in how quickly I’m
able to process films as I watch them, a skill that has grown significantly
over the last 7 years. With all that said, in a way, I hate films like this;
there’s a reason why I mainly stick to mainstream films on this blog with the
odd indie/foreign release here and there. Films of this nature go against my
sort-of instant gratification approach to media, and for the first time this
year, it’s a film where I am still trying to sort out my opinions on the thing
as I’m writing it. So, join me on what I’m sure is going to be a long, winding
and occasionally navel-gazing attempt to break this film down in my usual
style.
