Plot twists don't make a good movie

If you like movies that give you shock value, this movie is definitely a must-watch for you. As for me, it's a movie I will probably not remember for long.

I liked the fact that everything the synopsis gives you happens in the first 9 minutes and then you're left wondering, but I would not say that whatever happens after that is anything exciting because it mostly relies, as mentioned, on shock value which I personally don't prefer. The way the story is told though, is unique and very much to be applauded for; the separation into parts which are not chronologically related is a pretty smart choice for a plot like this one.

As for the characters, they don't really leave anything in your memory because it feels like the moviemaker thinks they are so smart for leaving things unsaid and deceiving the viewer but it comes off as cheap strategy rather than the "unpredictable plot-twist" that it's trying to be. I really don't have much more to say about the characters, which in itself says a lot.

The cinematography is captivating so it does it job in setting the right atmosphere.

I got no message from this movie which kind of pissed me off because it was obvious they were trying to convey something with it. Didn't reach me, for sure.
