Better the second time

Rating: Null/10 (3 March 1999)

I had seen "54" in the theaters and thought it was very bad. I had mostly seen it just to see Andy Warhol (played by the wonderful Jared Haris), but he was only in the film for like two seconds. I had expected way more of the film. Disney messed it up so badly. If they had just let the director make it like he wanted to, it would have been way better. Now all 14 year old teens like it, and adults and university students (like me) won't. Now, every time a production company messes up a film, they said it got "54'd." Too bad. I have to admit that the glitter and colors in the film was really good, but not as good as the ones in "Velvet Goldmine". The costumes in the were suitable. Out of the three disco/70's movies this year; "The Last Days of Disco," "Velvet Goldmine," and "54," "Velvet Goldmine was the best, then "The Last Days of Disco," then "54." Mike Myers was the best part of the film. I found Salma Hayek very cute. Neve Campbell was very disappointing. I have a feeling that Ryan Phillippe is going to be the next Leonardo DiCaprio. So if you're bored one night, and want to party, rent "54."
