“Intentionally hypnotized – if not hypnotic – performances from his leads, including a winning Jason Patric, stamp the corners with a biting, absurdist humour that remains Maddin’s purest talent. Looking sleek and professional in a crisp HD resolution, the Canadian seems to be progressing his style in baby steps, clinging tightly to his reputed signatures.”
