    Nice idea but the execution could've quite grab me
    I liked the idea of going through things with your younger self there beside you. It's probably going to stay with me for a while and I will reflect on it some more.

    The rest of the movie, however, couldn't quite grab me. I excepted it to at least be funny if wasn't going to be anything else, but it wasn't that either, at least not enough.

    And how can I end this without a wise remark: The thing you learn about Los Angeles when you visit for the first time, is that nothing is walking distance, you have to drive everywhere, so the idea of walking the streets of Los Angeles is unrealistic, which also made it harder for me to enjoy the film.

    I can see why a lot of people don't enjoy this
    I happen to love abstraction and films that force me to think about what's happening, so I found this to be fairly enjoyable. This film has challenging dialogue and works through an eccentric series of events which open up questions of the self, literally as well as figuratively. If you simply watch it then move on to the next thing, you're missing out on a lot the film has to offer.
