I won't be able to write anything about the acting, since I was unlucky enough to view this movie dubbed in French (the dubbing is below terrible). Nonetheless, the rest of the movie didn't make me want to rediscover it in English.
If the technique is interesting, tricking the viewer with old school methods and making us believe the movie was shot 20 years ago and infusing an Hitchockesque aftertaste to the picture - notably with a daring split screen scene which is as pretty as it's confusing- nothing else will salvage this work.
Characters are hollow, their motivations, development, goals, are blurry at best, plot twists appear to be both random and predictable (quite an achievement), as well as far fetched, twisting the narrative into confusing curves. I fail at understanding what the movie is trying to tell its audience. Is it all about going mental in a stress prone environment? Is it a digression about the madness of modern corporate culture? Does it mean that lesbians are crazy?
The final scene is either a gaping plot hole or an hallucinatory phase, which still makes me wonder not only who did what, but WHY they did so. In the end it's this big 'WHY' which breaks the whole movie, undoing the little cohesion kept by the characters' already uncertain motives.
In the end, this film is an oddly pretty yet completely disheveled creature.
