The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

This weekend i went to see the latest film from Terry Gilliam, The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus.
I found this film entertaining but also i was let down.
The trailer gives too much away so when i came to watch the film it wasnt anything i hadnt seen.
The story was too jumpy, i felt like they tried to squeeze to much in. It was like "real life, flashback, real life, flash back, real life, imaginarium, real life etc etc" there wasnt a flow to the film.
Not enough of the Imaginarium which was a big let down, all the momnets in there are great but not enough and not enough of the imagination being out there which terry gilliam is good at.
But as the film stands beside the above it is good and it was entertaining, i just felt like i was promisssed more.
