I love a thinking movie, but at points I started to think that some of this was complexity for the sake of complexity. I don't know if there was a succinct answer or point to a lot of the twists and turns he lays out for us during the movie or if they were randomly disconnected ideas.
The movie definitely keeps you thinking, but then as it comes around to its conclusion it makes a few little statements, answers a few little mysteries, but leaves you with a lot of hanging questions.
I am not the type of moviegoer who demands resolution and answers, but when I left the theatre it did wonder how clear Guy Ritchie's idea of what he was trying to say was. Was he just unravel a yarn of little mysteries without thinking about how they were all going to fit together.
In the Q&A after the screening Guy Ritchie emphasized that it is worth watching a few times. So I will take his advice and see if more things connect after a second viewing.
