This is my answer To the question, "what is the worst movie you've ever seen?"
Now, I will say that I watched the film when I was about 19 years old. I watched it on a fairly poor quality television and probably 1998. However, I think I would characterize this movie as something like "hysterically artistic". There is a painstaking labor towards artistry in the film. I also can partially accept the premise that the desert drives people mad. If you accept the hysterically artistic, and you accept it is plausible because the desert Drives people insane - then it's possible to connect a little with the premise of the film. But gosh, I feel like there is some point where you just say, "nope." In this movie was that for me.
However, it does not surprise me, nor does it bother me, the some people think that it is a "unforgettable journey" or a "sensitively told fable", and so on. And I will hold back from accusing such people of being hysterically artistic. I think everybody has a "nope." point In interacting with avant-garde art, and this movie definitely crossed my threshold and I think probably will for most people.
Last, when I picked this off of a shelf in Blockbuster in 1998, there was not a good description of what I was getting into. The pictures made it seem like there would be shooting, passion, and other exciting things. They were certainly not man colored as a leopard on the front cover of that version. So it may be all about what you think you are getting into when you commit a couple hours to this film.
