It was ok. it starts funny then gets extremely tiring and repetitive. There's a lot of bodily function stuff just for shock value. When it finally ends, it tries to sound clever while being sentimental. I'm giving it 3 starts because it's an accurate portrait of depression. May take 1/2 star later.
