"What is it" is the best name for this movie. Because that is what I was asking myself almost the entire time. My main quest in viewing this was to have a chance to meet Mr. Crispin Hellion Glover and quite possibly have him sign my Back To The Future box set, and I failed. I did have the pleasure of, before the movie, having Mr. Glover read excerpts from his book accompanied by a slide show. But this is not about slides shows. It's about movies. And It was insaine. I normally try to have a small break down of the plot, but in this case I am unable to come up with one that makes any sense. So here is what my eyes saw: Snails, snail murder, naked monkey head women. King Shirley Temple, Nazi Shirley Temple, Michael Jackson impression, murder, black-face, and puppet shows. Best I can figure from the credits and the Q&A afterwards (needed) this is about propaganda and and internal struggle in the main character Michael Blevis' mind. Why these things are happening or what they mean? No clue. Is there any actual sense of good vs bad or protagonist vs antagonist? Not that I can tell. The one good thing I can say about this is the interesting music choices. Some classical and beautiful, and some super racist. Over all this is supposed to be what he called a "weird movie" with a message. A message that I could not see. The only way any of it can make sense is with the Q&A with Mr. Glover afterward. A mind melting experience into the voids of insanity's depths. But it does, for whatever reason, make me curious of the sequel (How that even makes sense) It's Fine.
