almost as exciting as watching paint dry

Rating: Null/10 (2 June 2002)

I like movies that take chances, movies that create their own worlds and let their characters frolic in original insanity. That being said, i hate hate HATED this film. First of all, for anyone who said "it doesn't have to make sense because it's so thrilling to watch", I'd like to put them out of their misery. If watching a five minute scene about expresso is thrilling to you, there's something missing from your life. And a quick note to David Lynch: if you make a film that is admittedly "complex" (i'm being generous here), why pollute it even more with a good thirty minutes combined of scenes that have no bearing on the rest of your movie? Red herrings may seem cute, but for crying out loud, people will be watching this garbage. At least end their suffering early.
