Not as bad as Pearl Harbour

Rating: 1/10 (25 July 2001)

Not as bad as Pearl Harbour, but just as poorly acted. Music was bad, audio was bad. Very strong sexual scenarios.
The audio was so bad on this (I rented it as a pay per view) that even cranking my tv set up full blast, and augmenting it with my stereo, the dialogue was impossible to follow. Whomever did the audio production on this should be shot! (and yes I checked another viewing, and the audio was STILL bad!)
The music was absolutely dreadful. Music is supposed to
enhance a feeling - or set a mood or tone. The music stood out like one big sore ARM! (err I hope I didn't give away too much of the lack of plot!)
The movie describes the downward spiral of 4 individuals, each addicted to their drug of choice. More time should have been spent on character development, and less on trying to be and "artsy" film.
This movie would NOT survive in the mainstream at all. It has little to offer in the way of entertainment value.
While not as bad as "Trainspotting" - If the attempt was to show the down side of addiction. This could have succeeded if time were spent on character development, which was close to non-existent.
I guess I just don't get "artsy" films. Glad I only paid $4 for this dullard.
