Where do I start? I couldn't even check the spoiler alert box because I'm not even sure I could describe what takes place in this movie. It has no coherence whatsoever. This would be fine if the movie was entertaining or at least beautiful to look at or listen to. Sadly, it's none of these. It's a patchwork of edited film. What I mean by edited is that every image is blurred and discolored as if a teenager with Windows 95 got a hold of it and used the dated software to take the definition, color and quality out of the footage. This movie was painful in every way. The only reason I gave it a second try today (that's right, a second try) was because I just bought the Criterion Trilogy on Blu-ray. I didn't want to waste a nice Blu-ray disc and have it go unplayed. Well, I wish I would have left Naqoyqatsi in its box. I can't get this Saturday afternoon back. This is my regret.
