"To me, this is the pinnacle example of Arthouse cinema. Its hard to write about movies like this because it doesn't feed you a story, many characters, and it let's you come to your own conclusions. It looks great, it sounds great, and it somewhat disturbing. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a somewhat pretentious movie. "

"This crazy little movie changed me forever when I first saw it. It made me understand the medium I love so much. It is a masterpiece of filmic language as poetry or more accurately, music. The film flows as gracefully as the title implies. I loved this film, I love this film, and I will always love this film. "

"I love artsy movies. Asked an art school friend for something with stellar cinematography. They said this. And yeah it's gorgeously shot and the color pallete is beautiful, but omg. This is the pinnacle of pretentious arthouse. Waaaay too arthouse. Very self indulgent in its metaphors and symbolism."

"Although I love every aspect of this film, my fav part is where the thief, after drugging the victim, controls her by giving her a book, but she keeps making notes from it, and that later helps her find all the victims."

"This movie is so visually amazing. It’s like one long visual poem. If you are in the mood for something incredibly beautiful but much less straight forward and more metaphorical than your typical movie, this is it. "
