Ok, so I have a film degree so I've seen my fair share of weird and wonderful films. However, this one in my opinion does not land in the wonderful part. It's just weird. And not in a good way.

So first off the acting is the main reason it has 3 stars and not 1. The performances were absolutely brilliant. Beyond that however I'm really struggling to find any more positives.

To sum it all up. IT MADE NO SENSE. A film like this hinges on one big moment. That moment that ties everything together and makes you realise what's happened in the film you've just watched. That "moment" never arrives. It's just scene after scene of random stuff happening that has no explanation or reasoning as to why it's happening. Don't even get me started on the ending, it didn't answer a single question you might have had. It was so bizarre and random.

So how can a film make no sense if there's a plot? Well the plot can be summed up in one line. "Guy goes a bit mental in a lighthouse". That's it. There's no beginning, middle and end really. It all just looks and feels like random bits and bobs lobbed together. It was really boring and poor.

I found it all just far too pretentious and artsy as well. No doubt the film buffs and pro critics will enjoy something of this nature, but for an average film viewer this is something to avoid.

I honestly don't have much else to say on this other than it makes absolutely zero sense. And I'm really not exaggerating either. It's literally just random scene after random scene. Oh, I also had to have subtitles because I couldn't understand a word Willem Dafoe said.

Overall a weak 3/10 from me here. Doesn't make any sense, poor and boring plot and far too pretentious.
