In all honesty if Natalie's performance had been better, and the music wasn't so awful (like AWFUL @ SIA what is it you doing bb????) this movie would have worked SO well for me. It's just that the darkness of the story has so much potential but i felt like Corbet was afraid to really just go full twisted nightmare, and ended up with a mix of generic story about a pop star and a full on thriller about the pornographic society we live in. Damn it, I really wanted to love this one.
(oh that scene where young Celeste talks about the tunnel in her nightmares THAT'S what the film should have been aaall about... sad)
