    I really wanted to like this movie. I really did. To give you an idea of what you'd be watching here, imagine watching a scene play out for three or four minutes, and then, suddenly switch to a different scene, set in a different time era, with different characters, also lasting only three or four minutes. Now imagine six more storylines like this. Now imagine this going on for THREE hours nonstop! I literally fell asleep for like, ten minutes 90 minutes into the film. I then checked to see how long this movie lasts. 175 freakin' minutes! This movie was extremely confusing, very very long, really boring, and tries to present itself as some Avant-garde bullcrap. Well, I suppose it is, but it fails here. Simply confusing, boring, and sleep-inducingly long. And having the lead actors, Halle Berry and Tom Hanks, playing numerous roles in it, didn't help. You can take a chance on this, if you dare, but be warned. You won't get your three hours back.

    Although this movie was 'out there', I applaud Wachowski brother's efforts to produce an original film. This movie is 'thinking' movie, so if you are in the mood for a 'sit back and be entertained movie', then this one is not for you.

    Very Confusing. I think they tried to do too much.
