A bad movie. But I rented it twice.

Rating: Null/10 (3 March 2001)

This is a bizarre paradox of a movie which, although pretty bad, made me want to rent it again. Ryhes Myers is pretty wooden, as is Ewan McGregor (this is his worst performance I've seen), the script meanders and jumps around, the dialogue isn't great, and I really don't want to see Ewan McGregor naked... So why did I rent it twice? As people have said, its a brilliantly done, visually. The music is great, mixing classic Brian Eno and Iggy Pop and some okay new stuff. Anywhere in the movie centered around someone singing a song is golden. It breaks the continuity of the movie, but its looks great. Oh, and this is a movie you need to watch twice. Its not well written, so it doesn't make a lot of sense the first time around, but the second time around it kinda does. If you like glam rock music, watch this movie. If you don't, rent Trainspotting. Final verdict: Should have been rewritten a few times, and Brian Slade should have been recast.
