what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I have to admit that I couldn't watch more than five minutes at a time of AIMY IN A CAGE, a ridiculously quirky sci-fi comedy made on zero budget. Remember those mock-TV show scenes in NATURAL BORN KILLERS, starring Juliette Lewis? Well, imagine those made up to feature length, and you have this film. It's tacky, cheesy, and extremely broad, featuring a barrage of camera effects attempting to hide the fact that there's no proper story. Crispin Glover stars, surprisingly enough, but the whole thing is still an embarrassment.

I can imagine Aimy in a Cage causing great distress to a casual audience during screenings. Not so much for the content, as it's artistic and experimental form. I pity those who don't have the imagination or capacity to dream of cinema outside of a prescribed copy & paste format. There is a lot owed to Tim Burton - with the colored lighting, gaudy sets, costumes and props reminiscent of Burton's earlier works. The theme of being a repugnant and excluded artist is also present throughout. I saw the film as a subverted allegory for a girl struggling with an eating disorder, but who knows. Like the best surrealist cinema, the film flows subconsciously, like coming in-and-out of deep sleep. The cuts don't necessarily match and the audio isn't always synced, but it only adds to the orchestrated chaos of the film. Intentionally or not, I found the film hilarious in parts, especially scenes involving the Grandmother or Crispin Glover. Unfortunately, the narrative does fall-apart around the 50-minute mark (somewhat amusing in itself) as the cast shrinks downs to a trio. No doubt due to budget constraints. Still, I commend the filmmakers for creating this nightmarish fairytale, experimenting with cinema as an art-form. Which - lets face it, in recent times has reverted to being spoon-fed warm diarrhoea by major corporations.

If you started watching the movie, got confused and irritated and then decided to check IMDb for reviews, just in case you are missing something.Some puzzle piece that will make this mess into a coherent experience - well, I hate to break it to you, but there isn't one.The only way for this film to be perceived as "good" is if you genuinely want to take a dive into a delirium.Summary: It's bad, it doesn't get better to the end, no answers or 'endings' will be happening.P.S. I hate "10 lines minimum" policy. This sht shtick doesn't deserve 10 lines.

It was absolutely perfect in every way. The lead's acting was off the chart...I was really impressed and giggling along sometimes at the character's antics and the way she just ripped right into her role, it must have been just fabulous on set... It was the very first time I'm not very impressed by Mr. Glover simply because I felt like he was doing a woody harrelson thing or something, but I love him anyway and the role could have been more well defined or rounded as a character, but overall, it fit. I loved Miss Paz, she added an extra kick, and I just loved the writing & the set design. The lighting was also absolutely perfect. Perfect movie.
