Submarine (2010)


Disappointingly, Ayoade’s first offering certainly didn’t meet expectations.  Teetering on the edge of self-indulgent pretention, it transparently attempts to elicit a full spectrum of emotions.  It succeeds in parts (certainly plenty of it is very miserable), and fails in others, mostly due to a lack of much-needed subtlety.
