The Skinny on the Skin-heads

Rating: 6/10 (21 May 1999)

I have heard people laud this film for it's writing, it's directing, and it's casting. It's directing was fair at best, and it's writing was poor. Only the decisions to cast Norton and Furlong for the two leading roles were good. This movie suffers from organizational problems i.e. jumping from year to year like hopscotch, spending an extremely short amount of time on important scenes and vice versa, etc. Aside from the fact that it was interesting, the film was overdone and sophomoric. Only Norton's performance deserves any praise.
