    من فیلم را همان زمان که منتشر شد دیدم ولی تا همین امروز دست و دلم نمی‌رفت که چیزی راجع بهش بنویسم چون برایم کاملاً اثری خنثی بود. نه مثل خیلی‌ها متنفر از فیلم شدم و نه مثل ‌خیلی‌ها شیفته‌ی آن. دوست داشتم طبق معمول نقدی فرمالیستی بنویسم ولی از آنجایی که نمی‌خواهم بخش‌های دیگر فیلم را زیر ذره‌بین قرار دهم و در نظرم فیلم به اندازه‌ی کافی نقد رویش نوشته شده است و چیز تازه‌ای بعد از این همه…

The editing plays a crucial role in shaping my appreciation for this piece of art; the director and editor showcase a distinctive approach to conveying ideas through cinematic techniques, such as the use of slow-motion sequences.
