Hot Rod. I laughed a few times but it's really stupid and boring overall.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

i don't know if it's actually bad. it's sort of an odd duck. it's got ricky jay, it's got mamet's partner/wife who is deliciously cloying. and it is SO slow and quiet. to use the parlance of the young, it's a whole mood.tragabigzanda wrote:i loved this when it came out.

it does strike me as emblematic of the type of wildly but quietly horny movies that were everywhere in the mid-80s and early 90sMalloy wrote:i don't know if it's actually bad. it's sort of an odd duck. it's got ricky jay, it's got mamet's partner/wife who is deliciously cloying. and it is SO slow and quiet. to use the parlance of the young, it's a whole mood.tragabigzanda wrote:i loved this when it came out.

Re: What movies are you watching?
agreed. thought about comments about kubrick casting cruise & kidman -- that they were vapid enough to play the leads in Eyes Wide Shut -- as i watched scott act.tragabigzanda wrote: Campbell Scott is just such a weird actor. He conveys nothing, but he does it perfectly. He's like a dead star around which a director orbits his more lively planets.

Some of those compositions are bonkers impressive. 'Under the Sea' is a certified banger.

I watched The Breakfast Club today.
Very solid concept but cheesy AF. Really not a well made movie at all. But a good concept.
