In a time where breaking through in film often seems to require following the status quo, Bait cuts through it all with bizarre techniques and bravery - all with purpose. It has elements of Memento (although better) and a somewhat Hitchcockian feel at points with incredible use of scenery, perspective, mood music and patience. It's dreamlike throughout, while all of the characters are relatable. Within the dream, you have secrets revealed, sometimes without realising that they are a secret at the time. By the time the film creshendos (as you feel it will throughout), you already know the ending - even if the ending is different for you than it is for someone else. A unique experience. It's not so much a film as a work of art and thus, if you're after at fast paced action film. Steer clear! If you're after something beautiful that requires energy and thought from the viewer, you will find little more satisfying.
