It just didn’t work for me, at all. Apparently this makes me too dumb to ‘get’ the subtlety, but when a movie that starts much like Lock, Stock… or Snatch suddenly has characters talking to themselves, and somehow amidst the blood’n’gore we’re meant to ‘get’ that this is actually a deeply philosophical piece, all about ego and id and gawd knows what else. Urm, god, really – supposedly this draws heavily on kabbalah. Hmm.
Actually, once I’d read the wiki entry), I think perhaps it wasn’t the worst of ideas, just executed somewhat poorly.
