Interesting. The movie kept my full attention the entire time but I'm not sure I understood it all. I think we only get as much information as the main character so it really keeps you guessing. I wouldn't suggest it if you don't like to be puzzled and have to think about it for a few minutes. Also there is one scene that could be a trigger. Beware.

I absolutely love this film! I'm a hugh movie buff and I pride myself on being able to figure out complex films, but this one left me completely con-puzzled (confused & puzzles). I watched it 10x looking for clues and as frustrating as it was for me to not have a final conclusion on what was true and what was not, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. The two actors did a really good job with their characters and the style and camera work were very well done. Definitely worth checking out!

Achingly slow and the 2 nd twist made no sense.
