terrible... so disappointed.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Alvin is an agoraphobic young guy who works at home as a translator; he hasn't left his apartment in months. We follow him in his offbeat daily routines and peculiar obsessions. Unexpectedly we join Alvin in discovering another realm. That dream we have all had, of finding an extra room in our house or a new land reached through a wrinkle in space or time, gets a whimsical and fantastical exploration here. Teik Kim Pok as Alvin is amusing and expressive, making his character sympathetic whether he is experiencing the most mundane or the most surreal situations. The musical score adds to the idiosyncratic, charming tone of this unusual film.
