Traumas do Passado

I tried to like this movie but it wasn't any good the best part was the last five seconds

At first glance, it's definitely not clear what's going on in this movie. We watched it twice and it becomes much clearer the second time around but you have to pay close attention to the drawings. The plot is layered and you have to watch til the end. Well done movie, but not for those who are looking for a simple story. It's mind bending.

Entertaining movie for a rainy Saturday afternoon.

Other reviewers obviously worked on the movie. Terrible beyond belief. FF through most of it and it was still a chore. Absolutely nothing happens except The Hills have Eyes is impotent with a woman who you can't possibly be impotent with. Lousy movie gets one extra star for Thompson's incredible beauty. Avoid like the plague.

My main point of contention is that it doesn't make much sense in the end. All the plot lines cross at some point, but then they continue past each other to become a frayed end of their own. So if you are expecting something that makes sense, don't watch this film. Cinematography is excellent, and the acting decent. Characters seem to be random in their motivations, and they are given some back story that helps us to understand partially why they are the way they are. But overall, I was left uncertain about anything that happened prior, so their characters seem to act out of selfish motivations only. Too bad, as while I enjoyed the watching of the film, the emptiness of it became too much to tolerate to actually enjoy the film.
