It's set in Chile, involves a masked vigilante, and there's a David Bowie song in it. There's no way that you're not involved.

It's shit.
They do have "Life on Mars" in it but it's obvious from how they used it that they didn't understand the lyrics and assumed it was a generic love song or something.

"Life on Mars" is a quite gloriously strange anthem, where the combination of stirring, yearning melody and vivid, poetic imagery manage a trick very particular to the art of the song: to be at once completely impenetrable and yet resonant with personal meaning. You want to raise your voice and sing along, yet Bowie’s abstract cut-up lyrics force you to invest the song with something of yourself just to make sense of the experience. And, like all great songs, it's got a lovely tune.

Dammit, Lothar. At least, you could put the comma at the end of constipated so that it doesn't look quite so retarded.

Did I miss something in the translation? Was the guy borderline retarded? Cuz he was a stupid son of a bitch. They also seemed to not know what direction to take with it. It tried to bounce around from dark to comical in a very terrible fashion.

Really, the best thing about it was the sidekick, because at least he was intentionally stupid.

They had a kernel of a good idea with the media exploration angle, but I didn't give a fuck about the guy. So why should I give a damn if the media exploited him? Also, Chilean Commissioner Gordon is kind of a stupid son of a bitch himself.
