If you're a bird, I'm a bird
Wonderful opening but as the plot progresses the film suffers from Lanthimos's attempt to tackle too many issues at once without resolving many of them. I found the tonal shift somewhere around the halfway point of the film to be not only premature but incongruous with the set-up of the film. The biggest problem with this is that the film is unable to sustain itself and ultimately ends up lacking cohesion. In saying this, the film is good; I just think it could've been better.
