If you could nick a David Fincher film's throat, hang it upside down, and bleed it for two days, it would look like this movie. As a fetish object, it's impressive. But as a fully satisfying feature-length drama, it's a bust. And it's iffy as a visionary spectacle, too, because it's too long and over-scaled, and its control of tone and theme never matches the care that has obviously been lavished on its production. This is all a shame, because there's much to admire.
