Expectations were high for this movie but it soon becomes clear that none of the characters are likable, all are broken and you can't relate to any of them.
This movie is dark, disjointed moments in the lives of the two main characters and those in their lives.
Do we still understand why the guy leaves his wife and two kids, even though he does seem to really miss them? Do we understand why everything is so dirty and so old and the weather is always so miserable?
I like movies that make me work at understanding them, I like to be challenged by characters who are unlikable.
The ending is inevitable, no one gets what they want, content in their disconnection from life.
This movie left me feeling dirty, depressed and hopeless.
Was that the intent of the director?
