From reading the penny arcade blog about it and watching the trailer, it seems to be an arthouse movie that just happens to be made by the most famous people on earth. You might love it or hate it but most people just won't get it either way

I haven't seen it and, although I know it gets panned a lot for various reasons, I highly recommend at least reading the snippets of reviews of the film by critics to get an idea. Even a lot of the so-called positive films are basically 'this movie clearly sucks, but I liked it anyway.'

Basically, it's a very expensive, pretty, and totally incoherent mess of a film that a few people feel is profound but most people think is a colossal piece of shit.
