Very well executed

Overrated

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Pretty actors, good actors.No story.I was very disappointed by this film. Not because I like shoot em ups - I don't - but because it had no clarity at all. It reminded me of how I felt when I had a really bad fever once and became delirious. Nothing made sense and I was having to fill in the gaps for myself all the way through. I would have had a better time just staring at a blank wall and making my own film up in my head. The experience made more sense when I checked the background of the director/writer of the film and found he was also behind Cherry 2000!!A film that was on a week or so ago on cable and which was agreed by my family to be the worst and most annoying film we have ever sat through. Its most annoying trait was echoed by Happy Here and Now - in that both films keep on promising to get better if you just keep on watching. You have the feeling that it must be going somewhere and any moment it will all fall into place and make sense. After all they wouldn't spend all that time and money on a complete pointless waste of effort would they?Umm.... Yes. They would.

I picked this movie because of the blurb on the back of it. I love New Orleans and IFC. The reason I picked the movie though was never addressed. The cast of characters was cool but the stories were so disjointed. After suffering through 90 minutes of a film that started out making sense,well sort of, it made absolutely no sense at the end. By the way, that is 90 minutes of my life that I would like to ask the director to send back to me as soon as possible. I could use them watching a better film. No one had anything to do with nothing in that movie. I have read other reviews and I ask myself what planet was I watching the movie on. I strongly suggest imbibing in a mind altering substance before watching then it may make sense, maybe.

Mysterious, elliptical film that at first I didn't know what to make of, but I found it really lingered in the mind afterwards and was ultimately one of the most memorable films I saw at the 2002 Toronto International film festival; a really unique play between the real and the imiation of the real and the blurring between them. Funny, strange, affecting; I didn't understand all of it, but I liked it.

There is great potential in the premise and some of the characters, but no commitment to an engrossing story. The main character is as flacid as one comes, and it's mostly not the actress's fault. There is no delivery of any coherent message in each of the subplots that is taped together with scotch tape (no offense to 3M), And any direction each story goes in ends up in not only a dead end but a colorless, bland cosmos.Not recommended for even those who go to movies to hallucinate. Unless you need some extra sleep. - A sleeper, in the literal sense.
