• This showcases the cinematography beautifully but initially I am confused about the plot. What exactly is this movie about? I vaguely get reincarnation from this but not certain…

• it’s the notebook but made by a trio of fools that need a voiceover to explain every major plot point until.

• Looks ambitious and, more importantly, original. Even if it’s not completely successful as a film, I’ll still see it in the theater and vote with my dollar to ask Hollywood to take more risks on stuff like this instead of the steady diet of reboots/sequels/retreads, etc.

  • YES! That is exactly what we have to do if we want to send a message that we the audience are TIRED AS HELL of the same shit rehashed. NO more fairy tales, best selling novels, super heroes or prequels or sequels. please!!!! give us SOMETHING NEW!

    • and NO MORE movies about toys or popular games or video games.

      why is hollywood allergic to anything VISIONARY OR FRESH?! is it because their stupid marketing departments can’t figure out a way to turn it into a happy meal or an action figure? why can’t we just go see movies without having to buy the t-shirt, the action figure, the video game, the watch, the fragrance, the shoes, the lunch box, the what the fuck ever?! going to the movies used to be fun, now it’s just an assault on the senses. like being stuck inside a huge video game you can’t turn off.
      ugh.

• Do this: Play the trailer with the sound turned off and Enya’s “Orinoco Flow” playing instead.
  It’s magical! Like ridiculous, exhausting lovers separated by the time-space continuum and brought together only for five minutes in this one chance meeting, which is not really chance at all, but an explosion of LOVE HOPE COURAGE DEATH and BULLSHIT!

• Wow the Wachowski siblings got their interns/ assistants/ PR Flacks and anyone else on the payroll out in force to defend this thing and bite back at anyone who doesn’t like it. Nice.
