Hardcore Cronenbergers (a neologism one may regret) are likely to love it; most people will find it to be too gruesome and odd (as evidenced by large amounts of walk-outs at Cannes). Both sides of the deserted aisle are likely to agree on one thing: it&#8217;s not an easy watch and, like many Kristen Stewart line readings, it doesn&#8217;t always make sense. But, as in every Cronenberg film, there is a method to the madness here (or at least something diagnosable).
