Read More This unhinged film revolves around the most unlikely character while making an attempt to once again create a butterfly effect. The idea can be done well but here you play connect the dots the whole way through and in the end go, huh? I don't mind preachey films, per say, but if you're attempting to open my mind to a new reality at least be realistic. Not once did I feel for any of the characters or care what happend to them. Bad decisions made result in bad results. I guess the writer and I just differ too greatly in who's at fault. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More How they convinced lots of stars to be in this movie is a mystery. It is one of those "artistic" movies with such hidden deep meaning, that it's painful to TRY to enjoy it at any level. The story is disjointed and not worth waiting till the end to understand. A total waste of time! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Not only were there strange stories like a deaf mute getting naked and trying to lose her virginity with any man that will put it in her, but there was no conclusion and nothing tied together. Do not watch this movie, it never should have made it to your mailbox. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Was watching the boy fondle himself necessary to the plot. No, but then again, there wasn't much to the plot anyway. I became totally disinterested after the J-Pop scene. Why? Again, inappropriate and unimportant to the movie. I do not recommend this movie to anyone, even Brad Pitt fans. Boring, jumpy and way too much reading. If I wanted to read, I'd grab a good book and be more entertained. Even for free, it was a waste of time and an eye strain. I quickly mailed it back. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?
