Definitely different and the fact that I like Sofia Vladimirovna Vassilieva made it all-the-more-appealing.
I don't know if it was the food I was eating or what, but halfway through the movie I looked down at my plate and then around me and I felt like I was trippin'-out.
Only criticism is that she suddenly stopped hallucinating a couple o' hours after ingestion. That's not how these things work. Not only shouldn't it have happened that-quickly, but it should have been a gradual taper.
Of course, when it comes to mass-audience appeal this wouldn't have mattered and I suspect it was an artistic decision in the interests of conveying storyline details without the distraction of the earlier hallucinatory stuff.
Thanks for the recommendation brother. I give it the Monkey Thumbs-up™.
