I dunno. That was weird. It went a way I didn’t expect that. It was a lot darker than I thought it would be, but it left a lot of unanswered questions, and it didn't know how to land. It was aiming at it’s point, but ultimately it missed. It was doing something, but then it just stopped. The world learned how to commercialize his problem, but his plot didn’t really resolve. It had a new thought, and it’s floating out there, without connection.

Obviously, it was pulling in a lot of his academic theory into the dreams—standing out from the pack makes you a target—but what it was supposed to mean, as far as our plot goes, was really unclear. We have him experiencing one of the dreams, being hunted, or the book signing, extolled only by these French weirdos. Is it just something about the downside of fame? And that’s it, with nothing deeper? It felt like Beau Is Afraid (which was written and directed by this film’s producer), but it doesn’t seem like it had that array of interconnecting ideas beyond the surface message.
