Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It's one from the heart, and a twisted tale it is.
Such is Kim's plotty momentum that the whole thing feels like an extreme joke made of pained silences, one that somehow strips bare the subtext of overbearing parents.
When it comes down to it, this a movie where the only major female characters are intentionally interchangeable and exist only to castrate men.
Moebius is almost weird enough to be a creation myth, and that's no small accomplishment.
