Painful and boring attempt to make movie in Tarkovsky style. It felt to me that director tried to do both: make an art movie and making sure it will please the crowd (violent sex scenes, general violence and lots of blood). Tarkovsky said: “The director’s task is to recreate life, its movement, its contradictions, its dynamic and conflicts. It is his duty to reveal every iota of the truth he has seen, even if not everyone finds that truth acceptable. Of course an artist can lose his way, but even his mistakes are interesting provided they are sincere. For they represent the reality of his inner life, of the peregrinations and struggle into which the external world has thrown him.” None of the above, on my opinion.
