Critics Consensus

The plot's gratuitously nonlinear structure only ends up confusing viewers of this island thriller.

One of my favorite movies with the perfect melange of love, drugs, partying, and money laundering.

That was frustrating. I stuck through the undergraduate non-linear melange hoping for a clever tie-up ending. Wasn't given one.

Didn't take long to figure out this is one of those everybody gets royally screwed and ends up unhappy movies. When will filmmakers realize that movies are supposed to entertain? The real world is depressing enough. Why do movies have to assail us with that fact?

The audience just has to work a little too hard to see through the bad editing to the Haven that lies beneath, no matter how interesting and promising that movie may be.

What the film lacks in dramatic depth it makes up for in its visuals, which keep viewer attention even when the story drags.

Flowers' manic style...leaves little room to consider what is actually going on beyond all the eye candy and sensory numbing.
