What a waste of money!

Rating: 1/10 (9 February 2000)

I can't believe all the critical hype and praise lavished on this mediocre (at best) film. And I'm not alone. A lot of other patron of the cinema left shaking their heads wondering why they too had been suckered into seeing this trash. For two hours I had to watch a group of morally bankrupt characters pine about their descent into this comatose middle-class reality. Instead of presenting "the truth" behind the closed doors of middle-class suburbia, this film presents a "supposed reality or a perception". I find it hard to believe any people like this actually exist!! Then again I live in Australia - and there is no one down under behaving like any of these characters. Save for Kevin Spacey's performance no one would have sat through the first half hour! Maybe many Americans can empathise with this film - if they can then America's in more trouble than I like to think.
