I approached this movie not knowing what to expect, being unfamiliar with Ballard's novel and also having heard both soaring praise and searing criticism from friends whose opinions I value.
And I loved it, from start to finish.
One of the best casts you could imagine, under one of our best directors, delivers a satire that's a treat for the senses. A collection of marvellous characters, populating a near-reality, carried me along until the end, where I was left awed, smiling and wanting to watch it again straight away.
