Empty as can be

Rating: 5/10 (7 September 1998)

It's funny how many people are attracted to certain films if there's a chance for them to see a pretty face or some nudity. Usually I'm against that kind of behaviour and always try to justify a film by it's other, more important contents. I found myself incapable of doing this with "54". This film is a big "So What?". No climax, no intrigue, no suspense, no drama, no exciting direction, no sex, no mood, no good. I wonder why this was made... Why? What was the intention? Is there a point? Did the characters evolve in any way? No. You're always waiting for something to happen but nothing ever does. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time with this empty and arrogant Boogie Nights wannabee.
