Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

colinmcsloy When I was kid growing up in Scotland, there used to be a really cool cult film show called MOVIEDROME. It was hosted by Alex Cox (director of Repo Man) and each week he would pick a film, talk about it very honestly (often pointing out shortfalls and foibles of the production) and then show it. This was before DVD of course, so it was a great opportunity to see some pretty weird and wonderful films, things like RIVERS EDGE, NEAR DARK, and something with Dennis hopper escorting a dead body across the united states on a train(don't remember what this was called).This is exactly the kind of film that would have been on moviedrome, great and improbable casting (Crispin Glover and Eric Roberts together at last!), unachieved potential etc. Busey really impresses as Rick, he really takes his character on a journey, and towards the end he really starts to impress. I think the pairing of Busey with Indie film legend Crispin Glover, helped Busey achieve this performance. Whether because of the good on screen chemistry they obviously have or because Glover sets the bar pretty high acting wise.Other plus points include the credible and snappy dialogue, and a great cameo by Eric Roberts as Jennifer Tilly's husband/manager/pimp. On the downside, we have a pretty uninspired performance from Tilly, and a meandering plot that doesn't seem to get its act together until the last 20 minutes or so. There also parts by played by Goldberg and Lyon (is that right?, the girlfriend) that are so underwritten that they could almost have been left out they do that little to forward the action. The terrible split screen sequences are extremely half-arsed and should have been left on the cutting room.All in all very interesting failure. BBC bring back moviedrome and might even pay my license fee this year.

Annette83 32 people out of 138 gave this movie an 8, 9, or 10. That means that over 23% of people who watched it and bothered to vote were smart enough and thoughtful enough to actually get it... that's not too depressing.I thought this movie was awesome. I couldn't stop thinking about the psychology of the characters and how much thought must have gone into writing this. Natasha Lyonne's and Adam Goldberg's characters are boring and "normal" characters, whereas Crispin Glover(Jules), Jake Busey(Rick), and Jennifer Tilly(Ginger) are caricatures of three different types of people. Rick is completely driven by hormones and impulses, Jules lives in his head and observes the world but doesn't really live in it, and Ginger is addicted to attention and mental abuse. Their attempts to live life this way eventually fails for each of them.

killalotlml I personally enjoyed this movie a lot. It doesn't have neither a sophisticated story line nor stupid cheesy elements which are so often encountered in mainstream films. The movie has a nothing-to-lose feel about it, which is very relaxing and enjoyable. I especially enjoy road-trip films (see Going To California), which makes this one very close to my heart. Also my fondness of Heavy Metal allows me to relate to the main charachter Rick. Probably the best scene in the movie is the one in which he wakes up in the morning after being beat up and drives off to kick his offenders' asses to the sounds of Ace Of Spades.

Club Kid I rented this movie with high expectations. i was disapointed... It's not that it is a terrible movie, it just wasn't what i was expecting. I love the actors in this film, Natasha Lyonne, and Bijou Phillips but they weren't in the film enough to save it. The main character in this film is a loser, with a girlfriend that loves him, played by Lyonne. She's awesome in this film, the scenes that she's actually in. and of course Bijou is amazing. Not a great film but at times entertaining.
