Fall Time [Region 2] Reviews: One of the worst movies ever made  2008-07-22 - One reviewer gave it five stars because its a "gay movie." If you consider that a redeeming quality, then that's the ONLY redeeming quality. I found NOTHING about the movie to be redeeming, interesting or entertaining. Its one of those plots where you keep staring, thinking that something big or interesting is going to happen. It never does. The movie is creepy, the dialog is stilted, the story line is disjointed, the plot is weak the cinematography is amateurish. Its just a collection of odd events that barely have any connection to one another with a gay theme running throughout. I think its some kind of statement on child abuse or homosexuality. What in the world was the purpose of showing the mother making a pie running throughout the entire film? I have no idea what its really about. The gay themes are disturbing to say the least, and nothing about the movie makes the slightest bit of sense, especially the ending. I'm still not sure what the he** happend?! That's an hour and a half of my life I'll never get back.
Oh, would that Mickey could stop wooing me  2008-03-25 - No. Just no. Don't rent this. OK. A little something. It makes a lot of noise that adds nothing to the plot. Sheryl Lee (probably spelled that wrong) apparently has been scrabbling for a paycheck ever since Twin Peaks and it depresses me to see her act at all since that effort. There's a few other "never rans" in this that seem to really be trying but all for nought. I think Mickey Rourke is usually interesting, even in bad movies and he was in this one, too. But that's about all the good I can say about it. Honestly, I knew better than to rent this but I did. Shame on me.
This is really misguided.  2007-02-05 - I have seldom seen such a bad movie with so much talent. (David Arquette, Stephen Baldwin, Mickey Rourke, etc.) One wonders what they saw in potential for this script or why they made choices to be involved.
This horribly misguided film centers around a juvenile prank gone awry that ends up involving two bank-robbers who freak and there is enough gratuitous violence and mindless killing (and torture) to last me for the rest of my life. The film starts out terribly boring and gets more mindless and boring as it concludes, perhaps expecting the violence to make up for the total lack of story.
This is a disaster not worth enduring. Save the actors and film-makers the embarrassment of seeing this film and see something else.
Ed Wood eat your heart out.  2006-12-04 - I love movies. I hate this one.
Every melodramatic gimmick known to 1970s TV movies is packed in tight.
My favorite one is when one of the kids gets free long enough to pick up the gun, but is just too emotional to shoot his captor. The captor is yelling "Shoot me! Come on!" But he just can't. He's too busy hamming up the whimpering. Like the damsel running from the slow-moving monster and then she breaks a heel. Wouldn't ya know!
If you liked Mickey Rourke in "Diner" I suggest you don't spoil it for yourself.
Different type of movie for this genre  2006-11-28 - I just saw this movie and I was very impressed by the genre of bank robbers. I was very happy on one hand that the movie took a "gay theme" swing and it was a movie that didn't involve AIDS and people dying. On the other hand it took a negative swing because it didn't give a very good portrayal of gay relationships either. To be honest here, if it had been a "straight" couple with the relationship being the way that it was portrayed, I would not have thought anything about it. I would have thought that it is like any other unhealthy relationship that is out there. No, but it was portrayed as a "gay" relationship so I can see where it disturbed me and probably others as well. I and others have to come to realization that all relationships can be unhealthy. They don't have to be "straight or gay" to be unhealthy. Also, they are bank robbers for petes sake. There is something wrong with them as people (gay or straight) anyway if they are robbing banks. There is one thing that I will say about this "gay themed" portrayal, the robbers are not queeny or flamboyant giving a "weak" view of gay men. So to me, that was a positive thing. I do recommend this movie that wants something different and not your "run of the mill" gay movie.
