It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
