What saves this movie from being a complete nutjob is Heneke's great directing and his linear storytelling. That being said there isn't a clear narrative and it is utterly pointless. I usually hate narration in movies, in this particular case the narration is holding the movie together and pulling you back into the movie when the characters seems to be wandering around haphazardly. To top it all off there's no ending or resolution and that makes it even more pointless. Still I find myself enjoying this offbeat and absurd movie.
