This movie will stay with you

Rating: Null/10 (30 April 2002)

This movie is one of the most gripping movies I've seen in a long time. I dont know what the confusion is about. This is one of the more straightfoward Davis Lynch movies I've seen in a while. Just follow the movie and it explains itself. The characters are are great and the acting by Naomi Watts is fantastic. The best attribute to an actor/actress is when you cant tell they're acting. I've never seen so seamless a transition by any actress as when Watts turns her entire character upside down. Another testament is that many viewers, myself included couldnt tell that was Watts playing the altered role. I'm not going to go into plot detail, but you can make a case saying that this movie was about Lynch himself and how Hollywood screwed him over the series. As far as the series goes I hope it somehow makes it on Fox or NBC. Many metaphorical references are prevalent in this movie and it will certainly stay in your mind long after you watch it. It has its share of Lynch weirdness but I think he toned it down in comparison to Lost Highway. To sum it all up, this movie is one of the more thought provoking films to come out in the last 10 years.
