I think this is the reason I disliked it. It seems too self-consciously acted and directed. You're never allowed to forget it's a film, because the performances are too weird and stilted. The pauses in/after/before dialogue in particular are just ludicrous.

I can see why people might like it in 'technical' terms though, as you're talking about, and the first five minutes are great.
