This art house movie was a stream of consciousness in real time depicting an airport customs officers ensuring mental health breakdown in response to the challenges of everyday life.
In the Joker we had a similar approach where the everyday life was more interesting.
To my mind the acting quirks and contortions of a method acting demonstration is insufficient to sustain a movie, in the classroom as an acting exercise yes, but we don't want to see footballers practice we want to see the game.
There was zero story, zero dialogue and no narrative drive or impetus, we had insufficient character development or back story for the audience to develop any sympathy so we didn't care about the outcome.
This was instantly forgettable rubbish if you managed to stick with it to the end.
