Has anyone seen Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives?

I have to say judging by the reviews for this movie I was expecting it to be bad but I was completely blown away by it. It has to be one if not the most spiritual movie that I have ever seen. Not many people have heard of it but in my opinion it is very underrated. What do you think? Have you seen it?

I think it's wonderful but it definitely helps to see Weerasethakul's other work beforehand. Very languorous and opaque even compared to his usual style but it remains a very rewarding, beautiful and uplifting film.

Yes, definitely a rich and rewarding cinema experience. In terms of what it offers the viewer, I thought Reygadas's Post Tenebras Lux had a similar vibe.
