2.5-stars: Really, really interesting look at OCD and anxiety disorders but otherwise, uninteresting plot, cheesy lines, and hard-to-relate characters. Things that seemed important (Tuatara) weren't and a very unsatisfactory ending.

3.5 stars. Enjoyed the technical and the action was okay, but also a bit out there. Amazing narration though!

Quotes
The near enemy. It’s a psychological concept. Two emotions that look the same but are actually opposites. The one parades as the other, is mistaken for the other, but one is healthy and the other’s sick, twisted. There are three couplings. Attachment masquerades as Love, Pity as Compassion, and Indifference as Equanimity.
Compassion involves empathy. You see the stricken person as an equal. Pity doesn’t. If you pity someone, you feel superior. As long as the pity’s in place there’s not room for compassion. It squeezes out the nobler emotion
