Skip it. Richard Kelly's ambitious sci-fi fever dream is a fascinating disaster, but "fascinating" doesn't mean fun—it's a 145-minute slog of incomprehensible plotting, tonal whiplash, and self-indulgent weirdness that will test your patience far more than entertain you. Watch it only if you're a devoted Kelly completist or MST3K enthusiast.

Plot

Set in the futuristic landscape of Los Angeles on July 4, 2008, as it stands on the brink of social, economic and environmental disaster. Boxer Santaros is an action star who's stricken with amnesia. His life intertwines with Krysta Now, an adult film star developing her own reality television project, and Ronald Taverner, a Hermosa Beach police officer who holds the key to a vast conspiracy.
