Movie Review by Emily

Stevo (Matthew Lillard) and his best friend Heroin Bob (Michael Goorjian), who is ironically terrified of needles, and therefore doesn't do heroin, lead a life of rebellion, drugs, alcohol, drugs, sex, and did I mention drugs? They strive to show people what it means to be a real pink, and that they are a dying breed. along with Bob's girlfriend, Trish (annabeth Gish), Ladies Man Eddie (first timer Adam Pascal), and the completely wrecked for life by acid Sean (Devon Sawa), Stevo and Bob go through what they believe is the meaning of life in a strange, but somehow powerful film.
The acting in this movie couldnt have been better. I have to admit, I was skeptical of the usual jerk off type Matthew Lillard, and the former Newsie Michael Goorjian, but they gave me a pleasant surprise, and proved perfect for the roles, thus making the movie as good as it could possibly be. Adam Pascal was a charmer, and made good for the role he played. His good, if not slightly young, looks rounded the role off nicely. Devon Sawa, who I had previously seen only in Wild America, did surprise me by both making me laugh, and feel insanely sorry for his character at the same time. I highly reccommend watching this movie if you are looking for a powerful, and entertaining film to watch with friends, with a date, or on your own, it's worth seeing, and more then once.
