Can you both love and dislike a movie? A beautiful film in search of a point, and someone to make it. 3-ish stars. Cinematography on Mr. Nobody is unbelievable, by the way. The depth of field was perfectly used. Visual perfection. See it in High Def if you can.
Followup: Okay, 3.5 stars. 3.75 maybe. My problem with this movie probably stems from the massive re-editing that went on. Without giving anything away, there is a thread in the film that basically doesn't exist anymore. It is given severely short shrift and that fact is obvious. It may as well have been completely removed altogether. Not only would that have cleaned up the errant, dangling remnants but it would have allowed a more cohesive movie. Which is a weird thing to say for such a non-linear film.
Jared Leto is unbelievably great though, and people should watch it just for his performance(s). It brings up huge numbers of questions about reality, the multi-verse, identity and more, and it's worth watching.
