This is literally the first I’ve ever heard of it.
I doubt I’m the only one and I’m sure that at least contributed to the problem.
This is the first I’ve ever heard of it, so that might be a factor.
It flopped for the same reasons any box office movie flops:
-
Never even heard of it before it hit theatres
-
Niche genre oversaturation
-
I just watched the trailer, and I don’t want to watch the movie.
I felt the same seeing the trailers in theaters, the trailer does the actual movie and story no justice. I’d say give it a shot even so, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie
It wasn’t half as good as it thought it was. That’s the problem.
It insists upon itself?
(I haven’t seen it)
It really tries too hard to be shocking, outrageous and the end all love letter to movie making, but it’s just trying to do way too much. It’s worth seeing, just for the visuals and the effort.
I enjoyed it. It did drag on a bit and the ending was feel good to the point of being nauseating, but there’s some great scenes and some of the dialogues I absolutely loved.
I also liked how the underlining society in the movie just felt drab. Part of me wanted more debauchery to push the envelope but at the same time I think it was better as is.
I loved it! Was so glad it came to the small theater in my little mountain town. Saw it on the big screen and later watched it at home. I’m sure I’ll watch it again.
