It's too easy to criticize the film, but I wouldn't want to be in Lynch's shoes. He was too inexperienced and the book is far too large and there were many other constraints. All in all it must have been a terrible experience.

I however really like the art style. A weird mix of 19th century uniforms and steam punk(?). Also: The navigator is the best navigator I've seen so far.

"To that point, one of the more prevalent criticisms, specifically from Roger Ebert, was that the movie was ugly."

The movie is intensely influential on me, aesthetically.
