Movie Review by Movie Addict
April 14th, 2007

I love Winona!

I am continuing my examination of the "slacker" genre with this film and I was pleasantly surprised. While Jeneane Garofalo stole every scene she was in, I thought that Winona Ryder was fantastic and, along with Ethan Hawke, epitomized this genre.

She was the driven one, the one with dreams, and he was the classic slacker; sitting on the couch, no goals, just philosophizing about life and drifting through. She was the one to pull them through.

I was also surprised that I liked Ben Stiller in this film. I have not seen anything that he has done that was worth a second look, but I plan to delve into the extras on this DVD just to see him and listen to what he has to say.

Great movie.
