- YoursTrulyYoshiJuly 24, 2025I guess it's a movie. I am admittedly pretty stupid, so I guess I just wasn't gonna be able to connect with it. I kinda feel like there were themes about humanity but I wasn't really able to grasp them. Or maybe I am reading too much into it. I think of this movie as the kind that you have to be in the exact mood for. Not a Sunday movie by a long shot.
