I just finished this as well and told my brother I didn't like the way they spoke. Shakespeare came to mind but I don't know if that even makes sense. 😕 I guess like they were reading dialogue in a play?

The scene in the doctor's office was especially weird.

It's just a surrealist movie. The plot and the visuals are also kind of surreal in the same way

I think it's supposed to sound absurd. People don't speak like that. But I thought the actors pulled it off well. Cheadle and Driver especially.
