Absolutely amazing

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

After being an addict to IMDb forever I finally got an account when I read what other people thought of this movie.You basically have to be on a lot of drugs to think this movie is anything but the worst movie you've ever seen.It's not a gay movie, it's not a raver movie, it's a piece of crap.The story line is ridiculous, the acting is on par with a high school play, I can't even think of one good thing to say about this movie.My best friend and I watched it and within 10 minutes (he's gay we're both ex-ravers so the "target audience" of this movie was well represented) and within ten minutes we were going to turn it off but left it on hoping it would get better. It didn't

what utter and complete garbage this hideous film was. i don't know when "subversive" officially became synonymous with "aimlessly ambling, pointless mess which attempts to shock in the most embarrassing and obvious ways," but if it has, then call this subversive, i guess. watching the director's pathetic attempts to provoke the audience - using no more sophisticated tactics than your average episode of 'jackass' - was truly painful. nice cinematography, though.

One of the most surreal films I've seen in quite a long time. I'm a sucker for romance, so Sabu and Happy together made me squeal. Spanky was an amazing villain... He is the bitch I've always wanted to be. Happy was definitely my favorite, though. He reminded me of one of the boys from the indie surf group, Man or Astroman. Anyway, anyone with a personality should watch this. Anyone without a personality should watch it and gain one.

There may be a basis for the common opinion that Canadian movies are dark, dreary and slow-moving, but Hey Happy! leaves at least the last two behind in the prairie dust. Even the movie's darkness is the kind that only underlines the mad joy, the elated wild abandon that fuels this surreal tale of sex, drugs and electronic music on the eve of Winnipeg's apocalypse. The sheer power of the film's hope-through-hedonism ethic lifts a gay rave frolic into one of the most subversive, and therefore one of the most important, movies I have ever seen.
