    Messy and confusing. Not as good as his earlier work.

    Didn't like this. It's a film where not much happens. Not an unpleasant watch but it lacks any engaging conflict and emotional heft

    A spectacular picture.

    Guterman provides a tour de force on the human condition. In this heart-rending masterpiece, the protagonist (Tim Avery) is faced with the agonising vulgarity of his contemporary culture, and soldiers on despite his misgivings. In a lucid scene near the start of the film, Avery attends a Halloween party donning a cosmetic green mask, metaphorically representing his tortured inner demons. At this party he attempts to live life to his fullest, and crosses the tremendous divide that separates human personalities - the masks we wear to present ourselves to others.

    ★★

    I didn't enjoy it that much. It certainly looked good though. There was pretty colours. The overall plot was about gruff men wearing cured-leather vests and axes getting lost in the Scottish highlands.
    I sort of vaguely guessed that they might have landed in America half way through, but it isn't exactly confirmed until the ending. It's an interesting take on a period of history that's rarely explored in film. I think the writers had a lot of creative freedom…
