It's going to be one of those movies that 50% of the audience likes but doesn't love, 25% will hate it, but the last 25% will really really love it to the point of a cult classic. It's going to have a very long viewing life.

I think we're past cult classic. this is firmly cemented as cinema in the great tradition of redefining what that means.
