The internet reacts to Ending Things

I'm Thinking of Ending Things may be Charlie's least accessible movie, but not since Eternal Sunshine have I seen this amount of articles and memes about a CK film.

Junkee has been noticing the chatter online and takes a look at some of the more comical (and confused, and depressed) reactions.

There’s method in the madness (and this IndieWire interview with Kaufman explains some of the choices), but for those not quite ready for the illogical structure and constantly abrasive scenes, it’s a real spin-out.

As a result, reviewers and audiences alike are split between calling it pretentious genius (or is that ‘genus’?) and pretentious drivel. Where The Guardian calls it “daringly unexpected”, Variety says it a “didactically morose” film and a “Debbie Downer dud”.

Regardless of where you land, it’s quite the ride to get there. (Source)
