I like this kind of humour! A bit dark and awkward, very funny. The switches reminded me of The Matrix and Inception, but it's done in an original way. Especially at the end, that has never been done before. I am familiar with the philosophy of non duality which they are talking about in the film. If you've never heard of non duality before, I'm not sure you will understand it in the end. But what I do like, is that they even make fun of that philosophy. It's a nice combination of a few insights and comedy, with original switches.

Some of the "supporting" characters are caricatures, whose performances would be more suited if played opposed Tinky Winky and Laa-Laa. If it's meant to be a comedy...well, I didn't laugh the whole first half hour...
... View MoreTries to turn a "clever" idea about "who we really are" or what life is really about into a watchable movie. It fails miserably. In spite of the "movie inside a movie inside life" idea it is really just full of clichés, flaccid dialog and poor acting. But most of all it is really without any surprises. Even the BIG SURPRISE at the end falls short. Completely.
... View MoreWe just went to the premiere of this movie in Helmond: the Netherlands. The story about Alice and other people in this movie is so familiar that you related very easily to the characters. Every day situations are shown in humorous and unsuspected ways: like in comedy theatre. There is not much more to say - because of the potential spoiler - but there is a wonderful life message in the movie and surprising plot(s). Must see!
