These are 'rotten' comments I compiled from critics via Rotten Tomatoes. These were intended to be negative comments in response to various films. I would take any one of them as a glorious compliment:

"Disturbing and completely inappropriate for kids."

"This is an infuriating film."

"A mixed bag of realism and arch, dramatic exaggeration."

"A great big incomprehensible phantasmagoria."

"Avoid it like the plague."

"Maddening."

"A puzzle deliberately without a solution."

"They speak English, but the film doesn't feel American."

"The film is masturbation."

"A bitter confection chock-full of rusty barbs and a woeful, inexorable slide into doom and worse."

"An extended mood opera."

"It's a movie about luggage."

"A baffling but always intriguing failure, the movie gets more confusing, not less, as the story unfolds."

"As menacing to the artist as that of gravity is to the balloonist."

"He has a vision. No question about that. But in the end, he leaves us wondering why we should share it."
