EGOTISTICAL TOUR-DE-FORCE
Nonsensical Cinematography term used when you don't understand a single thing about the movie, so you are obliged to say something faux-meaningful about the director. Originally used in late 1980's in Limerick, Ireland by amateur would-be film critics before spreading urban areas and thence internationally (BMC)
"I felt the film used a mishmash of several differing genres and tropes, but my main comment would be that for the director, it was an egotistical tour-de-force'
