I finally got to watch this tonight, and while I enjoyed it, I think the direction is a bit heavy-handed. And while I can understand the use of a lot of jump cuts in the upbeat numbers, they were also heavily used during the more mellow songs, and I think that really pulled me out of the movie. During Come What May, I found myself thinking "Jesus, why can't he just linger for a minute?" It was, however, a very unique and interesting movie... that I'll likely never watch again.
The worst part about that is that I think I got a bad disc (but I'll inquire about that in another thread). So now I guess I'll have to brave the X-mas shopping crowds to exchange a disc for a movie I'll probably sell to someone anyway. BLECH!
