My Review-
This movie was really strange. Do not get me wrong it was a pretty good movie, but it was really strange. The thing that made the movie good for me was Dennis Hopper's performance even though his character was like out there and was really weird. Even though I have never seen any other movie from Lynch, I can tell that he possibly likes doing dark movies like this one and it seems like he rarely makes movies, his last one was in 2006. This movie was just all around weird for me, but well acted by almost everyone except for Rossellini, to me it seems like she over acted everything. Dennis Hopper was the one that saved this movie for me, and maybe some of the symbolism throughout the film, you should watch it just for that to try to connect all the symbolism's in the film which I think its known for now. This movie is kind of a hard watch since it is kind of slow, and takes time to get to the good parts of the movie, which is almost all with Hopper, with this movie is shows that some of his best movies are as a villain.
