Movie Review by Lisa
March 22nd, 2007

I didn't like it....What!

I was very intrigued about this movie; I loved the look of it, thumbs up for the whole rotoscoping thing.

......But (and I know a lot of people will disagree with me) the story was a little weak I didn't like it, yeah Downey and Harrelson play pretty good junkies, but that's because they where high for the best part of the 90's ...its not like it was a stretch for them c'mon. The little conspiracy ending might have the stoners going "wow man that's like...totally fuct up" but I don't get high these days and I'm aware of darker conspiracies than portrayed in this film.

For what its worth Downey was pretty good in his role, Keanu mediocre at best, and Winona should just stop making movies now...she's becoming one of those people who you could see beaten severely and not bat an eye lid.

2 stars and that was for the rotoscoping.........I can see how it would be good to watch on acid or after smokin' a sh*t load of weed.....but I didn't.

The rotoscoping itself was great but I just didn't see the point of it for this story.
