Avis à la une
Co-writers Mark David and Ronnie Blevins are an inspirational team, and although he is surrounded by an award winning cast, Blevins holds his own in the spotlight. His character, Ethan, is eccentric yet lovable and he is harmoniously paired with his love interest Hanna Hall.
To me the movie is nothing less than 113 minutes of life, love, laughter, and addiction - without a single minute wasted!
the plot line never gets beyond the stunted growth of Ethan's failed and sabotaged attempt to grow an American cowslip flower. none of the neighbors are remotely humorous or funny. Ethan is just so one dimensional the viewer looses interest in his erratic drug addicted reclusive life. and the women on the street all love him and for what reason we don't really know outside of the poker games. and the sudden jack and the beanstalk growth of the cowslip is just silly!
even goofy nonsense movies have to make sense somewhere in the story! this story is just a bunch of ideas thrown together to try to make an instant cult favorite. all it made was an instant failure.
skip it!
No, he was simply insufferable and it was hard to see why any of the other neighbours went out of their way for him.
The young teen neighbour (who, incidentally did look older) falling in love with him and all that was just plain creepy.
I hope this was not meant to be an anti-drug movie, because that is certainly not the way it came across.
