I watched this because it was interesting to see how wildly deviant the reviews were and so I needed to see exactly what it was people loved or loathed about it.
The cinematography is very good, and there's not a lot of script to this but that's the point, it's art and supposed to be through the eyes of the daughter. It's well worth persevering to the end as imagination becomes fact.
Hopefully this will be thought provoking for all of you lucky enough to be able to watch this in comfort, not everyone is so blessed.
The closing text of the movie explains everything If you've not understood it by the time you get to that point.
The poor reviews either don't get it or refuse to believe the suffering of millions, shame on you.

I gave this movie an 8, not because it is a good movie ( it wasnt actually bad) but because it kept me and my wife wondering what will happen eventually to the family. Any movie that glues me to my seat wondering what the end will be, in my book, is a movie worth seeing.
There were instances when i wondered where did they get this and that and how did some one die because it was not clear how. But quickly dismissed it for the sake of seeing what will happen next. I will not reveal what happens at the end. My wife felt it was a bit depressing cause the film was close to water and she always is afraid of water. To me i actually enjoyed it.

This movie its a perfect movie to explain the Braun of One kid. I not gonna spoiler the movie, but its a movie to see on all world. But u need to watch from start to end. Nothing make sense, but Im the end... All pieces completo the puzzle. One masterpiece.
But for that u need to watch and watch with yes of detective. Nothing its what u think its is, and its very actual what it retraited on this movie. The really problem its to make u Stay until the end whiout Skip the movie. But u need to watch all movie. U in the end gonna understant all and u gonna cry with all the people on tour Room. Not a movie too everyone, but everyone needs to watch it.

The movie packed uncommonly. It's not intended for commoners. It need special knowledge and composure to understand the message of the overall story.
It's like spotting mirage in the middle of dessert. Full of mystery, surreal and tragically heartbreaking in the end. Very unusual way to send the message but I completely understand after final watching the movie.
Very nice movie and touching.
The storyline is running slow. But, don't worry. It meant to be. At first, I feel worry and dread while guessing what was happening back then, why it's happened like that, when it happened.
This is how you can find your empathy what was happening in the real world.

Through the decades of cinema, there are movies that you enjoy most, movies that you love most, movies that you remember most, movies that you refer most but this one is different. To understand and to appreciate this movie you need to have guts. You need to have passions. You need to have knowledge about what it talks about. It's a movies that blends with the art makers want to deliver to you! Before starting to watch this movie remember that you don't have to expect anything from this movie and I want to warn all of you that don't expect that this movie is a thriller one! It's a movie that can bend your mind!
