the film caught me by surprise ... it was not a fantasy indeed ... i also agree with earlier comments that it could be interpreted at diff layers ... wow ...

i have also been thinking ... that if we were to remove ALL the fantasy scenes, would it come across as another average/above average film?! ... just wondering ... it is really the well integrated fantasy AND reality scenes that make the film great

i shld also add that a lot of scenes "screamed" right at your face ... with the MANY brutal gun shots and torture scenes ... oh no ...

conclusion
highly recommended ... i think most critics/art film goers would like it ... 

as for the marketing (more towards a fantasy), i think it might disappoint some teenagers ... i overheard some conversations by teenagers after the film ... like ... "what is the moral of the story huh?" ... "do you understand the film?" ... etc
