Impenetrable? Hardly. The deliciously ironic thing about the film is that Waters hated it beacause he "felt no sympathy at all with the lead character". He doesn't or refuses to get that the character half based on himself is a weenie and a jerk!
If you go thru life without being betrayed by someone you love, without being abused by an authority figure, or missing a proper father or mother figure, then you probably haven't really lived yet. The "poor me, my life is so bad" thing is a fairly normal and, yes, adolescent reaction, but I never said Waters was anything more than a decent musician, and that this film was something more than just "infantile crap".
If you didn't like it, that's fine. Nobody has to like anything. But you didn't say you don't like it - a statement which I would not have responded to, for whatever that's worth. You're being, in my opinion, absurdly dismissive of something you've decided you don't like.
By the way "it's so ridiculously naff that i couldn't take it seriously anymore." That's gold, right there.
