Super slow and just really not that good.
Plot is all wtf, soundtrack is all in your face (ears) and ending is all like "well you could at least hold her straight, jeez"

This movie does a fantastic job at showing how the world looks through young Hushpuppy's eyes. It felt like a fairytale at times, horror story at other times, and maybe that's the point.
The supernatural elements felt a bit out of place at first, but they belong to Hushpuppy herself rather than belonging to the reality she lives in, so I wasn't put off by them other than the final confrontation seeming a bit anticlimactic.

After observing the outpouring of geek excitement over Apple's Siri quoting this film, I decided to watch it.
Seriously, what?
Scares the bejesus out of me every time. I love the attention to detail in his steady downward spiral. The intense obsession over something as mundane as business cards... those scenes always stay in my mind after watching this movie.
Although Bateman's world becomes distorted and the situations more outlandish as the film goes on, he is himself always grounded and remains very realistic, which is quite disconcerting. Why did I feel like the psycho was actually the most sane…
