First part good, second part amusing but unconvincing action

Initially was quite excited, as this felt like an interesting variation of Falling Down, with a normal man snapping and no longer caring. But then it turns into John Wick mode, where he endlessly escapes bullets from mindless goons - if they shoot at all. This was the lesser part.

Filmnoir with a some absurdity - which I wanted to like more.

Maybe these film-noir type of movies are just not be cup of tea, but I had trouble getting into this, and Pullman, with his single-expression stonerface, wasn't helping. The weird twists and turns were nice though, as was the lovely Arquette. But I felt I was missing something.

Slightly amusing but deserved to be great

This is not a movie I would normally watch, so I'll try to be fair. The story provides fruitful soil for comical situations, a stab at Bali tourism and has room for some deeper explorations. It's all there, it kinda works, but it's also a lukewarm, lacking a sharp script to make it pop.

Some cool graphics served rather plainly

Unfamiliar with the anime backstory, I had to take it as it was. I really liked some of the visuals, and the story was descent enough. But it failed to make a real impact, it all felt kind of flat and 1 dimensional. Some good supporting music was suspiciously absent or mixed in way too soft.

A balancing act

At times I found this mysterious, arty and dreamy slow burner, nicely flavored with a dash of horror and science fiction, intriguing and pretty. At other times I found it pretentious, sleep-inducing and pointless. I suspect most will only find it one of these.
