Bizarre does not mean brilliant, nor does gay...

Rating: 3/10 (24 October 1998)

I'm a fan of films where the director plays around with issues, images, and styles, in the most bizarre manner. This is an exception. It was trash. It was trying to be "Citizen Kane" mixed into the glam rock version of "The Doors", trying to retell the rise of glam rock through two characters that are meant to be David Bowie and Iggy Pop (with other names for legal reasons, of course). Adds several bizarre shots, makes one or two attacks at the music industry, and plays out gay fantasies of the reporter. Could have been more interesting but it turned out being the most boring film I've watched since "Motal Kombat: Annihilation". The performances were good, but the film goes nowhere, starting many things that it never finishes, or finishing things it never started... 3 out 10...
