This movie spirals in on itself so much that it’s difficult to figure out just what your watching. See a movie unfold as it’s created… but then, it’s all just a script with actors, isn’t it? Truly an original. The ending was perfectly woven into the movie too – as the writer runs out of ideas, he turns to his dorky brother and we get car chases & drugs & alligators eating people.

Wild At Heart
This here is my snake skin jacket…. Gotta love this one. David Lynch at his best. Other movies of similar genre have come out since, but this one was the real shit.
The Rock
Hollywood will use any excuse these days to show explosions and car chases. Why do they even bother with a plot or character development in these movies? Oh, that’s right… they don’t.
Raising Arizona
The kind of movie you either love or hate. I didn’t really love it or hate it though, it was just “ok”.
8mm
Yes, it was well filmed and stylish and all, but the whole “evil porn underworld” thing just didn’t phase me much. Sure, there are some wacked-out people in that biz, but this movie makes them out to be equivalent to drug lords or politicians or something. Certainly it was tragic, but I didn’t think the reaction of the Nicholas Cage character was right for the subject matter… something about his acting – his reaction to the snuff film – just seemed fake.
