The Five Obstructions
This film was rather confusing... it was a documentary, with other short film incorporations? It was artsy fartsy and cool, but I couldn't follow it to save my life. The idea of "obstructing" and re-making a previous film in different ways was a cool idea, but I wish the film explained that angle better and more in depth (again with the hard to follow statement). And overall, I didn't even really understand what the original film, "The Perfect Human," was about. This is definitely a movie I would need to re-watch to fully comprehend. I would recommend to other viewers to maybe just watch "The Perfect Human" before seeing "The Five Obstructions."

I agree with you, I was incredibly confused. It almost seemed a bit more like a reality game show of sorts than a documentary. I found it to be incredibly dry and, while the concept was cool, the film itself was pretty boring and forgettable in my opinion.
