A Sensory Play
I can not say this is not a 'good' movie. It certainly was hard to enjoy, with thin plot and camera takes that seemed to stretch infinitely without any stimulation on the horizon.
But there is no sloppiness or pretentiousness going on here. The story and the delivery are both sharp and clean cut. The uneasy and uncomfortable feeling from watching the film was struck up intentionally to symbolize the state of residing in an alien body and walking an alien land.
The cacophonous sound track, I have to say, is a very smart move. By abrading the audience's nerve endings, it literally put us under the skin of the heroine, not passively counting on our imaginations to take on the task, but actively forcing our sensory into the play.
