I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK (2008)
[7/10]
I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK (2008) took me by surprise. The trailer really made it seem as a comedy. I found it to be a tragicomedy with a very creative take. It was bizarre most of the time, often for a reason and sometimes just because. Slow pace took time to get the characters and their backgrounds. On the other hand, it was never a still snapshot to begin with.
I really loved multiple references from the past into the present, with alternations in perception, imagination taking over the whole ward and interchanging within the patients. Few moments were quite sad, I sympathized with the characters over their losses. I certainly expected a mellow semi-ambiguous ending with an positive feeling overall, wondering whether it could have been any different.
