The more I think about it, the more I like it
I don't know if this is a "thing" but this feels like one of those movies that I like more when I think about it retroactively. While watching the film, despite getting the general idea of what it is an analogy of, I got slightly bored in between the great moments of dark humour, the major character developments and decisions, and the excellent action sequences (such as the brilliantly choreographed fight between Ben Whitshaw and John C. Reilly). This may be a product of how I watch so many blockbusters, although I like to believe I have a good appreciation of more thought-provoking movies. I do understand that it was part of the "point" of the film for everything to be so mundane (going down to the repetitive music) and the concept really works, but that still makes it mundane to me.
I enjoyed watching it thoroughly though, don't get me wrong, I just feel like I enjoy it a lot more when I remember the stand out moments and think of the film and it's message on an overall note.
Anyone feel the same way?
