I'm so upset with this movie. The background and hype this film had made me super stoked to see it. Unfortunately I was pretty disappointed.
I guess to start off I'm not a huge fan of David Lynch. Don't kill me please.
I enjoyed Eraserhead, that's about it. I respect him as a director, hes original and calmly horrifying. He has his own style that no one else can match.
Anyway about this movie (it's going to be a short review)
It had way too many unanswered questions leaving me confused for the most part. I feel like Naomi Watts and Laura Harring make a wonderful pair of actresses but I knew the minute I saw them together on screen in this film that they would end up falling in love and fool around.
I feel like a lot of the hype from this film comes from being able to see Naomi Watts's tits and lesbian action. (which I'm not complaining, it was hot.)
I did like the entire scene of them going to the late night show at the creepy theater. That was well done and very surreal. Wait scratch that the ENTIRE film was surreal. (duh, it's a David Lynch film, Ashley.)
Moving on, I understand the story line, I didn't like the way the plot went along with the story. After watching it I felt like I wasted a good hour and a half. While watching the film some of the scenes, there is no explanation on why they were happening, you just kind of had to accept them. Lastly the film felt forced to have you take this mound of twisted surrealism and try to make sense of it which kind of hurt my brain cells.
