What's it all about?

Palindromes

Director: Todd Solondz

Cast: Ellen Barkin, Stephen adly-guirgis, Rachel Corr, Walter Bobbie

Cert: 18

A disappointing, and often confusing, tale of the human journey; in typical Solandz bad taste.

One is left wondering what exactly the writer-director was getting at, other than grasping our churning stomach with the tale of a lady whose journey is for the purpose of finding someone to impregnate her. In doing so she meets a collection of odd and unpleasant characters who raise a few, scattered laughs but leave us with the feeling that we really don't know, or care, what's going on.

Star Rating: 1/5
