User comment: 'Trevor is a lot like Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver'


WTF.... IN WHAT SURREAL UNIVERSE DOES HE LIVE IN?? I'm sure that user must be a friend of the director or something. Either that, or a complete pretard.

Trevor is more like those two filthy kids from GUMMO. Only the can actually stir an emotion on the audience, unlike the annoying Trevor, who only provokes extreme boredom.

If he should be compared to anyone, it would be that guy from SLACKER, only ten times worse, and more slacking.

I'm sorry guys, but this movie is awful beyond words. The only reason people (read: hipsters) like it, is because they think it's "indie-cool" and "hip", when in fact, it's just garbage.

The cover-photo for the movie, and the screenshot of Trevor torching stuff with a spraycan is the only good thing about it. And I guess that's all people see when they upvote this film.

Hey to each his own, whatever the f'k a hipster is I assure you I am not, just to be crystal clear on that order. As for the quote, yea I don't see that either, but I liked the film nonetheless, "dat's da way da ball bounces g"- P.E.

I liked it, and did notice some similarities before I came here. I am pretty sure any character slowly unraveling will be compared to Bickel though.

Enjoyed every minute of this, Joshua Burge is great also in Buzzard.
The Travis Bickle comparison starts and ends with them both being frustrated with their surroundings.
