The directing was maddening, I've never seen such cool lighting and framing combined with an awful sense of space. The images are really cool, but the sense of motion and ones place in this world is non-existant.
It could very well be a stylistic choice - it does create a sence of claustrophobia - but it reeks of a lack of technical skill in the director.
All in all I liked it... 6.8/10

Unless of course the Director was trying to create a sense of claustrophobia than of course it would speak of the high technical skill of the director. I actally liked the feel to it ,thought that it added some eeriness. Just my opinion.
