Lynch's worst movie since 'Dune'.

Rating: Null/10 (10 March 2002)

Boy, it makes me laugh to read all the pretentious twits try and justify this waste of time. I'm a long time David Lynch fan but at least I can admit that this flawed "movie" is ultimately pointless. Lynch takes a potentially superb pilot to a proposed (and rejected) TV series, tacks on an unsatisfactory "ending" and sells it to the big screen. The first two thirds of the movie are hypnotic and full of suggestive future possibilities and plot directions. The contrived final scenes spoil what has gone before and pose more questions than answers. There's no point trying to figure out a "meaning" to this, because there is none. Anyone talking about the how 'Mulholland Dr.' symbolizes this, or is an allegory for that, is completely fooling themselves. As a TV series this could be fantastic, and better than 'Twin Peaks'. As a movie it sucks.
