The 'credits' from that 'Movie Database' website are useless, huh? I was like - oh, Jason Patric and Giovanni Ribisi - but the second one is a DP here it turns out, and the first is nowhere to be seen either.
But the movie seems to be right up my alley, as they say, and at least the trailer didn't spoil anything.

Holy f**k I loved this film. Really great, original and mental. Everytime I clicked what was going on it hit me with another wtf. Can’t believe Ribisi was the cinematographer!

Brilliant

Just had one of the worst movigoing experiences due to technical reasons, yet still liked this movie, which is a testament to how good it is, or rather how awesome Willa Fitzgerald is in it, despite gimmicky 'Pulp Fictionesque' shuffling around of the timeline, which became a tired trope before the 90's ran out 25 years ago.
Nothing too surprising for an experienced viewer, but Fitzgerald is so great here, I practically fell in love!
Also this film probably should be shown to all the overly hysterical woke people to demonstrate how things can be in the real world.
