I would say the stories are pretty dark but no more dark than real life. It's actually a concept I've been thinking about a lot lately because a very rich millionaire I know recently committed suicide. Judging from his social media accounts you would never have known. His life literally looked perfect if you just observed it from Facebook. The movie makes me reflect on my own desires and how they have lead to much of my greatest suffering. I have, many times, acquired those things I have begged at the sky for, only to find darkness in acquiring them. What you want often causes your greatest suffering, much like sugar is to a diabetic. Generally once you have what you have begged for, you find it to be cursed or you find it comes with a heavy price.

Well filmed, in fact, spectacular at times, and for the most part very well acted, but one ponders a single question at the finish, WTF? Make that two questions: why was this film made? If there was a point, it must reside on the top of my head.

Any negative review of this movie must have been written by someone that is dense and lacks sense of humor. It would be hard to find any film ever that mingles the intense storyline and danger, with such a baseline self awareness of its own silliness. Watch it and then watch it again, like me :)

Great visually but the three stories blow. Fairy tales have a lesson to teach and these all seem to be lacking full development. Over an hour of my time wasted and I will never get it back. Watch something else. This makes me question the validity of user reviews on imdb. Never trust long winded reviews by film critic wanna bee's from now on. I will trust the regular folks reviews.
