I often find myself enjoying movies that do something different, far out of proportion to how objectively good they are. Perhaps it's because I've seen too many movies at this point. And it sounds like this one does something different, so I'm sure I'll end up watching it and most likely enjoy it.
"Cloud Atlas" also comes to mind -- I'm not sure how *good* I consider that movie, I suppose I would say it's OK, but it sure was *memorable*, I've definitely never seen a movie like it, and for that reason I enjoyed it a lot, at least for a single viewing.
My recommendation is to keep your expectations low! It’s a weirdo art movie that openly holds its audience in contempt…but if you’re willing to put up with the abuse, it’s an interesting film. Haha

I enjoy formula too (who doesn’t love a good romcom?), but I’m mostly with you guys. I should probably give Cloud Atlas a shot!
Love it or hate it, Cloud Atlas is undeniably the best Cloud-Atlas-like movie.
We're given the same 5 story formulas ad nauseum, so any movie that breaks the mold gets major bonus points.
I also thought cloud Atlas was really cool.
Well, now I want to see this. Thank you for this review.
