If it wasn't for me seeing the description of this movie before hand I would have had no clue what was going on. Chariot started off strong posing some interesting questions "why has this guy had this dream 5000 times?" "Why is everyone so eccentric and strange?" As the movie progresses none of these questions are answered. Instead more and more questions are asked to cover up the fact that they didn't answer anything so far. Every question posed by an actual character in this film is frustratingly answered with an "I don't know". It's a movie about the nature of existence and reincarnation and yet when we finally have the doctor actually start explaining what's going on he says this "we don't know how it works or who made it but it just works. You die you're born and then you die". We don't know how it works or who made it should be the title of this movie. No direction, no cohesion, no vision. This is what you get when you say "I want to make a film about the afterlife" and don't put any thought into it whatsoever.
