Problem:2 days in the valley is more or less a pulp fiction knock off .
it basically involves how a bunch of quirky characters in the los angeles area end up having their lives become intertwined in some very unusual ways .
i 'm not going into much greater detail than that , since it would take forever to explain , and quite frankly , i 'm not willing to spend any more time on it than the 2 hours that i 've already wasted . while it tries very hard to be pulp fiction , 2 days in the valley falls way short
.
this is quite a condemnation considering the cast includes danny aiello , james spader and jeff daniels .
while the story is n't much , and the dialogue and characters rate only marginally better
, 2 days in the valley does have a couple of bright spots .
james spader 's character , while not much better than the rest , is at least fun to watch in a sick sort of way .
and we do get to see a nice cat fight between uber babes teri hatcher and charlize theron
( in her first role ) .
you know a movie is n't that good when the highlight is a brawl between two women .
even if they are both gorgeous .
i will give the writers some credit for the fairly clever ways in which they managed to intersect the lives of this group of characters that would have otherwise never interacted .
but marveling at that ingenuity is a far cry from actually enjoying the result .
while some of the characters and their respective stories are fairly interesting , they inevitably are brought down as they intersect with the other half of the characters that i really cared absolutely nothing about . if i were to put a number on it , only about half of the story and half the characters in this movie were particularly interesting or otherwise enjoyable to watch .
this is the sort of movie that only a huge fan of one or more of the cast members should rent , and even then prepare for disappointment .
not even charlize theron being naked would get me to sit through this movie again .
or at least not all of it anyway .
