Effing genius!


I'm only 20 minutes into it and had to stop and post. Movie's amazing. Raw and real! It's classy and cultural to in a sort of pulp fiction way.

One of the best films of last year. Deserves a higher rating.

i thought the opposite. it came off as the author didn't know anything about his characters, and was just making fun of them with stereotypes. it came off as the author saw gummo and thought it would be cool and edgy to also make a film where they huffed, and just happened to know of the dancing outlaw films, and used them as a basis because of the characters in gummo.

well put, but i don't think that this was meant to be a true portrait. i think it is more of a what if story. i will have to agree that i was rather irritated by the portrayal of D. Ray and some of the other characters. i just tried to take it at face value and tried not to compare it too much with reality.

You must be British. Wrong it's far from superb.
