I put a 1 on my ranking for this movie because there is no lower option. I hate to give it such a terrible review without saying something for it first. The actors did a reasonable job, given the circumstances. That also is what really was just disappointing about the work as a whole. It didn't seem like the tools were missing to make a decent movie about corrupt business marketing. It was that they were just poorly used. The plot was unknown to me until about 1/2 through the movie. Jumpy scene changes and unnecessary side elements killed any chance at a story from really taking hold. I was hoping that it would develop into a weird/cool view of the world that would be at least an interesting concept.However, the climax of the movie led to a letdown. The main character was built up to be a messiah to save the world with his unique skills. All he turned out to be was a guy who saw the market industry from the eyes of someone overdosing on acid. This movie was a waste of time. The only thing that I gained from it is that I have a funny bad movie experience to share. I hope that no one else makes the same mistake.
