Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
... View MoreThe movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
... View MoreThere's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
... View More.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
... View MoreI agree with all the positive points of the 5 Positive reviews above. For me this film was a joy from start to finish. So much better than most of the big budget films coming out of Hollywood with their hackneyed, clichéd and boringly predictable plot lines, camera work, direction and editing. For me this low budget film beats most of those out of the park. So a big thank you and congratulations for excellent work from the director Eduardo Carrillo, and lead actors Dale Paris, Angel Boris and Tony Pacheco. If Eduardo Carrillo gets the breaks and financial backing his talent and skill deserves he could be in the same league as Tarantino.
... View MoreBeing in the film business I am aware of many fine independent low budget movies produced outside of the Hollywood system. "Suicide Blonde" is a little gem of a movie. Recognized as such my mini-major Artisan Pictures, ( Terminator 2, Blair Witch, etc.), as they released in on DVD and VHS in June of this year. If any of the Major Studios had the Cojones to place this film in 3,000 + theaters; it would have, without any doubt, been the suprize hit of the Summer of 2003."SUCIDE BLONDE" ( Played by beautiful Playboy Centerfold "Angel Boris",(she can really act), has the ingredients to become a "Cult Classic". Watch it a few hundred times, you'll find yourself repeating the cool lines with the colorful cartoonish like characters, "The Scorpion", "Skinny Man", "DogBreath", Very Humourous Latin Ganster "Pepo Duran" and his Marx Brother like band of cohorts, the wimperrring "Mr. Lovaglio" and "Achmed The Convenience Store Clerk". Only visuals are necessary as you watch "Bubbles and the dancing girls at the "Busy Beaver". A superbly fun filled action packed burlesque. A very different little film. A very "Unconventional Love Story". Buy this DVD, check out the extra's. especially "Behind The Blonde". Grab some popcorn, M&M's and watch this with a group of upbeat friends and "laugh your ass off".
... View MoreMy American friend gave me a tape of Suicide Blonde and I loved it. The look and saturated colors reminded me of a painting. I love American films and this one with the beautiful and sexy girls and handsome leading man was a joy to watch. I just wish I could have played a part in this creation. My artist friends and I agree every time you watch it you pick little nuances you missed the first time. I have watched it many times and still love it. This is American cinema in the raw and on the edge, I applaud the filmmakers for their vision. My only regret is the ending that saddened me, yet in a way it had to be. I am jealous that I wasn't in this the gem.
... View MoreI saw the world premiere of Suicide Blonde at the world famous Egyptian theater located in downtown Hollywood, CA. The Place was packed I guess at least 1600 people where there. I just happened to be in town and went there as a lark. I was so glad I did. This tiny budget film knocked me out. I swear not one person left their seat until after the closing credits. The movie was a fresh and entertaining take on the gangster pictures that have been around forever. It proves the point that it's not how much money you spend that makes a picture entertaining, but the creativity of the filmmakers and the skill of the actors. I saw in the trades that it will soon be released for sale and rental and I hope people will support this film and show "Hollywood" real movie making is alive and well.But I'll stop sounding like a advertisement for this little picture it does have some rough edges. But in a way that adds to its charm. It's a good flick to watch with your friends over a beer and just enjoy its unusual characters, sexy girls, and funny yet deadly bad guys.
