And yet... I know someone who loved it, sadly

Have they watched it more than once? I actually thought it was okay after watching it the first time, despite the confusing plot and a bunch of minor characters I just couldn't keep straight. So I decided it was worth another watch so I could pick up more of the story, but instead the second viewing was just painful as I ended up realizing how terrible and nonsensical the movie was.

I know they did and still liked it. I wasn't able to finish it on the second round. Some moments are amusing and some are interesting, but it just wasn't enough to keep me hooked.
