Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Amy Adler How do you review a film you haven't watched? By saying, after a mere ten minutes, its obvious this film has a repulsive quality which negates any joys. In the first few minutes, a young man, Jeff (Bradley Cooper, before he hit it big) is playing jazz and R & B tunes on a VERY minor FM channel. What he plays is very fine. But, soon after, a young beautiful woman and man are making love, explicitly and talking about sex as well. After watching this scene, the film switches to an upscale restaurant, where Jeff and the young woman are employed. As they discuss a customer, its obvious that the lady, again, has been using sex to get what she wants. At that moment, off went the film. It was NOT for me, although I have watched films of an R rated nature. Perhaps even this small movie had some good points but, alas, its not worth the wait for better morals and happenings. My advice is just skip it. As I checked it out of a library, I feel certain the staff selected it for Cooper's inclusion, probably when re-released. What a tragedy, as there are certainly better, more tasteful flicks on the same subject, somewhere.

rob-121-508101 Unlike other reviewers, I did manage to make it all the way through. Barely. It was kind of like a porn, but without any porn. Believe me that was the only thing that kept me going until the end... waiting, hopeful for something redeeming. Bad story (NO story), terrible script, awful acting, sound and camera work as if they were recorded on someone's Handicam. Edits between scenes that are worse than home movies. If I were Bradley Cooper, I would seek to buy out the rights to this thing and have it forever locked away. How do such bad movies ever get made? Surely there are dozens or even hundreds of scripts out there that SHOULD be made.. and made at least half-well.

wright_larry I will not watch Bradley Cooper or Colleen porch again because they were in this piece of crap movie! I could not imagine ANYTHING worse than this movie and the acting was so pathetic,..... Ugh!!! I think watching a drunk puke would be far more entertaining. HOW IN THE WORLD DID THE IDIOTS WHO RELEASED THIS MOVIE GET ANY MONEY TO RELEASE IT??? PLUS WHO ARE THE IDIOTS THAT INVESTED IN THIS GARBAGE????? There truly needs to be a level BELOW AWFUL!!!!!!! This movie should be shown in acting classes as a movie of WHAT NOT TO EVER DO OR GET CAUGHT DEAD DOING! I remember this movie called death race with David Carradine, which WAS my worst movie of all time but this movie far exceeds that movie. In fact, in comparison to that movie, that movie would be on par for an Oscar. This movie doesn't even qualify for the raspberries! The director, producer, casting agents and everyone responsible should be given prison sentences for this crap!

njones1983 This film is so bad that I honestly thought maybe it was done poorly on purpose, like a "Blair Witch Project" kind of thing. I can hear the director saying, "Cut, it's just not bad enough yet". The cinematography, if you can even call it that, is reminiscent of an 80s B movie, but the lighting and the look change throughout. Some scenes look like a talk show, and some look like a Soap Opera. The audio is terrible. Most of the dialogue is production audio, and the few voice-overs that were done barely line up with the actors mouths. I rarely turn a movie off before the end, but I couldn't stomach another moment. I only watched the first 20 minutes. Oh, and the plot, you ask? I have no idea! If I could vote a negative number I would.
