What an experience! Aronofsky has just pushed the 3 poeple in the cinema as far as they’d probably like to go!
A multi-layered nightmare that for me that was about the incompatibility of fame and the person. A satire that dares to go way beyond typical dramatic logic. Still keeps its three acts though.
The cinematography and sound design were exceptional – about 75% of the shots were hinged around close-ups of Jennifer Lawrence – who does well at keeping the sane protagonist in touch with the viewer. And that’s about as regular as it gets.
Lots of theories abound as to what this was about, and not in a Lynchian way – they’re all plausible to someone with half of a brain.
If you like divisive and creative cinema go and get this experience before it crashes out of the box office!
Take your partner and she may not speak to you for a few days (is what I heard actually happened from one fellow cinemagoer).
