Classificação de moondog-8
A first-time director and first-time script writer try to tackle truthfully Carl Jung's contributions to psychoanalysis. If one were already trained in the practice or had been a patient, it might have been more coherent. If you watch it trying to understand why Jung is so respected (I watched it twice: in a theater in the 1980s and again at home in the 2020s), you can get lost and confused. Certain psychoanalytic terms are bandied about without ever defining them for the lay audience. Nothing is explained as to why Jung's thoughts were so revolutionary. It doesn't illuminate nor educate, it simply allows those who became his patients to more or less reminisce.
When Robert Rosson and Robert Parrish had way too much footage to work with editing the (eventual) Oscar-winning ALL THE KING'S MEN, they hit upon the idea of finding the central moment of each scene, then cutting out everything that wasn't 100 feet before or after that moment.
The creative team for this movie should have done something similar. There's way too much establishing and throat-clearing at the beginning of every scene, and way too much resolution and tying up loose ends at the finish of every scene.
When you add to this that the characters aren't developed so there's no one to care for, the movie becomes a big bore. I was disappointed. The only thing that kept me watching was the possibility of more on-screen nudity.

From the beginning to end, there were an enormous amount of plot holes and missed opportunities. Lots of the characters' decisions were of the eye-rolling variety such as in the 1980s slasher movies where everyone decides to split up (instead of sticking together) in order to find a serial killing maniac. The same sort of knuckle-headed logic dogged the exposition of this movie. Character development is almost non-existent to the extent that by the finale you don't care who comes out dead or alive. Granted, it has a nice look and good pace but when the story fails to generate enough suspension of belief to make it engaging, there's not enough left to enjoy.
