MY CRITZ
I dread watching this movie. The only reason I stayed awake during the 1/2 half of the movie was because of my homework. It's way too artsy-fartsy for my girly taste. Even the tagline in the poster says "close your eyes open your heart". I should've known. The thing is, you just have to be super duper "open" watching this movie, because what you thought is real, is apparently just an imagination of the main character, Stephane (Gael Garcia Bernal). It's too confusing for me. The effects are cool, but I definitely need Cliffs Notes to follow the movie.
