03.16.07 | Alamo South Lamar | This Screening is part of event: South by Southwest 2007 About halfway through this movie I thought to myself "man, this is like a slightly less-crappy version of Dance Party USA." Well, now that i'm home and can check imdb, I can see why. I was gonna say this movie was just barely mediocre but, knowing it's from the guy who did Dance Party (the worst movie I saw at last year's fest), I'd say it's a really remarkable improvement. it still feels like you're watching actors doing really bad improv and trying to pass it off as naturalism, but this time around at least there's no crappy monologues and at least a hint of a story. But not really. It's more like low-rent Linklater meets a Lost in Translation fan. The lead actress was there and she's cute so it wasn't all bad though. |
