Mysteria (2011). 1h 38m | Not Rated

“OK. Well, to start with, Mike Rooker, who has p****d me off for DECADES with over-acting, and never quite making it, deserves a supporting Oscar in this. Yes, his script is good, but, at last, HEu0026#39;s good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBUTu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film is just, I dunno, not quite there. Too clever? Donu0026#39;t get me wrong, I liked it, it left me guessing, but thatu0026#39;s just it. The back-story, the narrative in the writeru0026#39;s/directoru0026#39;s mind, never quite made it to screen.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m left knowing I saw something good, something very good, but somehow, just a little, empty. Unresolved. And Iu0026#39;m not trying to say EVERYTHING should resolve – I mean, hey, I live in the UK – we canu0026#39;t even get the weather right – but…. I liked the film (itu0026#39;s gone from 7 to 8 while I wrote this, and the cinematography, script, acting, are all top notch…)u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut then hey. I admired, and was irritated by Mulholland Drive. For similar reasons. Very similar. watch it. Definitely watch it. But donu0026#39;t blame me if you get just a little bit lost when the credits roll.”
