I almost fell asleep

Rating: 5/10 (19 March 2004)

Visually I liked this movie. They did a lot of interesting things with color. The sound really got to me. The songs were boring. Basically it was like a hack composer trying to imitate the sound of Bowie or Iggy Pop. I appriciated the film as being a somewhat mainstream movie featuring a male "love" story. But I didn't really like any of the characters except the reporter. The stuff with the pin was supposed to be symbolic, but it came across as meaningless. I have a pretty high tolerance for movies. Most either are entertaining, or are so bad they're entertaining. This movie failed to do either, really. Wouldn't recommend this not into glam rock. To Wong Fu... is a better movie with crossdressing. (For what that's worth)
