14 Awesome Movies That Make No Sense Whatsoever

Because who needs logic when you've got a half-girl, half-alligator?

Does a movie have to make sense for you to enjoy it? That depends entirely on your opinion of what movies are supposed to deliver, but given the cult success of films like Mulholland Drive, Primer, Pi, The Fountain and The Tree Of Life, it seems that a perceived lack of sense shouldn't necessarily deter a film from enchanting audiences. These aforementioned films are just some of the go-to answers when talking about nonsensical cinema, so this article aims to dig a little deeper and uncover some more left-field gems you might've missed (with a few classics peppered throughout as well). Each is wacky, bizarre and may test the patience of less open-minded viewers, but if you're prepared to venture out on a wild ride, tremendous rewards await.

If these films tried to make sense, they wouldn't nearly be as entertaining and memorable as they are, so it's clearly all for the best. Here are 14 awesome movies that make no sense whatsoever...
