Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
That sound you hear is of checkbooks closing all over Hollywood.
Film suffers from a multiplicity of themes, ideas and its fragmented style with flash-forwards intertwined.
One of the craziest (and druggiest) movies ever made, it's also blatantly self-deconstructing and meta to the max, albeit produced years before those terms became commonplace.
Dazzling, chaotic, indulgent.
