Stay is a movie of thinking, some people like to think, and others just want to have a good time watching a fun movie and not think much about it. Film buffs will agree with me when I say that you have to think to enjoy this, and some people don't want to when watching movies. Some movie critics also don't like to think, which is what a lot of critics expressed in 2005 which is were most or all of these reviews are from. These Critics don't like being challenged in a film because that feel it insults them so they throw around words like pretentious a lot. This bad trend from near 20 years ago of not thinking when writing reviews crushed this movies chances of being big and made it easier to hate for the average viewer and pressured others to do the same. We know that critics did this from looking at the the reviews of movies like 2001 A Space Odyssey and Predator which are both Classics.
My advice for you is that taking into consideration what I've said you decide whether you should watch it. You can watch the movie and express your actual opinion freely not pressured by these 20 year olds reviews.
