Had no idea what I was getting into, starts strangely right in the action then explains backwards how it got there before meandering towards the finish. It feels like a Tarantino movie, long scenes sometimes dialogue that goes nowhere, quirky characters. Just a bizarre movie really but very unique in ways. Also I don't know the history it is based on but seemed to tap into a lot of truth with freemasons with the 5 group, freemasons liking the number 5 for rituals, it's the interesting parts like that that really kept me going. Seeing so many talented actors doing their thing was great too. Felt like it really transported you to the era in a way that other films haven't. Parts felt Tarantino, parts felt Wes Anderson, parts felt Del Toro, just a weird blend of stuff. If you have a spare 2 hours there are much worse movies to watch, just hang in there because it is dialogue heavy and takes a long time to tie it up but overall was a satisfying ending.
