Hilarious and Offbeat.......2004-12-08

I laughed from begining to end. I watched it with my 13 year old boy and 16 year old girl. We agree on very few movies, but we all loved this one.

Dismal.......2004-09-18

While it may be heroic to fly in the face of convention--especially the large corporate movie making machine that is Hollywood--if you are going to do an indie film, you have to show some serious filmmaking chops. And these guys definitely ain't got em.

Take the facts that the acting is amateurish, the plot immature, and the dialogue insipid, and you have three good reasons to avoid this at all cost. It's not hard to tell that the entire raison d'etre of this piece of protozoic muck is to thumb a whole bunch of noses at Tinseltown. But why should that be a reason to make a film?

The filmmakers, and I use the term loosely, are attempting to "recapture" the feel of 70s goofball comedies (many of which have dated to the point of embarassment) and they do it so poorly that one can only cringe during most of this travesty of a film.

A 20 year old guy's dad dies; he was a Harley-riding Hell's Angel type whose cronies urinate on his grave. Turns out, however, that due to his highly illegal activities trading in illicit chemicals, he was able to leave his progeny a nifty little inheritance of just over a hundred grand.

Fancying his friend's girlfriend, our hero gets in Dutch with his friend (the boyfriend of the girl he desires) for obvious reasons and then gets into a bunch of scrapes involving the FBI, a secret New Hampshire militia, a dominatrix, and other assorted/sordid characters, none of whom amount to much at all.

Meant, no doubt, to be a contemporary picaresque, this winds up instead being an all-out smellathon that's sure to lend a heady reek to your DVD collection.

Recommendation: do not buy; do not rent. If you've bought it already, try to sell it to some unsuspecting meatball who loves this kind of pig swill.

Ugh.

Buy it - I laughed so hard I cried.......2004-08-28

I highly recommend this film. Its great that we have innovative film makers like this. As mentioned in the title, I laughed so hard i cried - I'm more of a serious person and don't like silly Hollywood comedies. This one is fresh.
