Surrender Dorothy

This film seemed to be going for shock value, but without much sense of reality in the script or in the acting.

No addict of any kind would submit to the indignities depicted here unless predisposed to do so.

I rated this 2 out of 10, though, because of a pretty cool soundtrack, and because "Dorothy" was kinda cute. ;-)

I've been waiting forever for this movie to come out on video and now that it finally has I got a chance to see it. It fully lived up to my expectations. The general consensus among most critics is that in order for a movie (or book) to be good, the audience has to identify with the characters. Here's a case where both of the characters are complete slimebags and the movie is still good. I feel no sympathy for the Lahn character as he locks the key to his own cell, complaining the whole time. The Trevor character as the sadistic misogynist victimizer is equally if not more repulsive. My only complaint with the movie was the whole scene with the prostitute seemed pretty forced.

I must admit that I only watched this film because I am a big fan of Diane Keaton. She is a wonderful actress whose movies are mostly comical. She plays a more serious role in this one all though there are some funny scenes in it. I gave it a only a six because I feel that Diane was out of her comfort zone in this one. The surrounding cast is just above average. What is this movie about ? Watch it for yourself. It's worth the watch.

Don't waste your time... I couldn't even finish watching this annoying crap... Claims on the advertising for this "film" claim it's a unique look at a gay relationship? Again, gay men are really women, so turn them into transvestites... Who writes this garbage? How about Ugly, meets Ugly..?

This movie lit me up from the beginning....it's somewhat of an unusual setting, but it's great. The way the main characters manipulate each other...it's great. And the music.....Chris Matarazzo is a musical genius. Everything fits perfectly. Bravo Kevin DiNovis! Bravo Chris Matarazzo!
