The reason we dislike this movie is because we did get it. I feel there will be a reevaluation of this film in the coming weeks, and you'll see opinions will be more evenly split.

I feel I did get it for the most part, although I would be interested if any reviewer gives us a spoiler review of what exactly he or she did well in regards to fleshing out the ideas of this film, which for the life of me I just don't think this movie did too well. I reviewed it on my Youtube channel if you're interested.

I don't necessarily think that if you didn't enjoy this film, you've missed or failed to understand something.
It was a very slow burning and relatively uneventful movie. I thought the philosophical underpinnings and the emotional payoff at the end made the whole thing quite worth it. And it was smartly done on the whole, plus great cinematography. But I can see why some people would just find the whole concept and message not worthy of the time it took to finally get there.
