The film is entertaining because it is definitely absurd, and it's fun, but it's deeper elements are a composition of other people's ideas. Especially part two. You would think that either Daniel would be able to discuss the origins of the philosophical sentiments expressed in the movie if they were their own... but in any interview, neither can touch on the detail relating the concepts being tied together, not even remotely. But, somehow miraculously, they can present them in film? How is that? Because the ideas aren't Daniels'.

Because of that, I don't see them making another philosophically compelling movie after this. Kwan already admits this in his interviews, and it's likely for good reason.
