  A new cult classic, perhaps

  by Raja_H

  Coppola is back and who knows what that means for the future. He seems to want to make more experimental films and that will be wonderful wherever it leads. This film is a reminder to the whole CGI industry about what a master can do (with the assistance of a master film editor like Murch). It's a visual feast, beautiful to watch and surreal without a computer. Any of us could make these kind of effects with a video camera...if we were Coppola!
  As far as the story, it will be a cult classic because of its subject matter: spiritualism, Buddhism, the nature of time, the origin of thought, the meaning of birth and death, and a couple of Nazis thrown in for good measure. The scene with a lightning machine and a horse suspended from the ceiling is a classic (and one we couldn't do ourselves without the cash). Wonderful acting throughout.
  And yet...it will be a commercial failure. It's too complicated and too weird. Nothing that a few tokes at midnight can't heal.

  by alindanielolaru

  Interesting movie; maybe not for the average movie goer. if you really want tofeel its taste, do a little research on Mircea Eliade's work.

  Youth without Plot!!!!

  by LittleLucy27

  WHat was the point of this movie? I coulnd't tell you! People, SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!! THIS WAS A BUNCH OF CONVOLUTED CRAP!!!!! I'm pretty sure I counted at least 5 or 6 different plots within the supposed main plot which in itself was so ridiculous, it was hard to sit through the whole movie!!! Too LONG, Too WEIRD, and really not even thought provoking at all! You just really wanted it to be over after an hour!
