I always get frustrated by that.

"Still Life" is the Jia film. Both great, though.

Based on critical response (which is far more reliable in relation to formulaic Hollywood fare than art cinema), you may think Only God Forgives is some kind of mess, but as KJ suggests, it's actually a really lean, precise film. I would put it in the tradition of unfairly trashed Cannes oddities like Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me and Enter the Void. If you like those films, you have nothing to worry about.

What the fuck are you talking about? Unless you're talking exclusively about comedy where you HAVE to be a part of a certain society to understand all the jokes, your statement is demonstrably false.
