first at all represent if you like watch movie i recommend you not to watch this one . why . afterwards you would not appreciate any other movie so easily anymore . actually i do not wan na give rise to any excessive expectation but it be almost frightening how perfect and intense and beautiful this work of einar gudmundsson be . when in most movie there be at least one aspect spoil the whole thing and like good actor but horrible dialog or a nice scenery but low budget cinematography in angels of the universe there be nothing of this ambivalence . really everything be just great and even ( and not least ) the soundtrack with the magnificent sigur rós . in this story about pall and a student that go schizophrenic after be dump by his girlfriend and especially the dialog ( and monologue ) deserve some attention represent together with ( and sometimes in sharp contrast to ) the plot they range from depress and fatalistic to the whole opposite of comical and totally absurd . what be more and they be often ( with quote from hegel and shakespeare ) of such a poetic beauty that the movie almost drift into a surreal sphere and be only save to the real world by it incredibly authentic actor . one of the other comment be already refer to another point represent this movie be no trivial entertainment for relax in the evening . despite of several comical relief in between it be largely disturbing and partly cynical and bitter and and most of all sad . it be a modern poetry about a life of insanity with all it emptiness and rage and solitude . finally represent when you have see the movie watch it again . there be some great visual metaphor and allusion in it that you realize only when you look twice and connect them with the moral of the story . and of course represent read the book and it contain a lot more of the small funny story in between and also make you understand some thing in the movie a bit well .
