Mentes Perversas

Complex and convoluted, Pleasure Drivers, with its esteemed cast, carries you on a dark, yet comedic journey through different story lines. Despite her bad language and bad scrunchies, it is Lauren Holly's performance,(her best to date) with a raw,edgy, and intense portrayal, that immediately captivated me and kept me cheering her on, all the way to the end. I did not realize she was such an amazing actress. Lacey Chabert delivers an unexpected sexy portrayal. It is one of the better indie films I have seen recently. I really enjoyed the look of the picture,although it did move a little slow at times. Does anyone know if this movie was released in the movie theaters?

A nurse and her patient, a professor and his nymphomaniac student, Meat Loaf, Billy Zane and a showdown at the Big Cock Inn. Just another day in the lives of our hapless heroes.

I like films and stories that have multiple story lines that converge into one connected plot. Tarantino does this well. I myself wrote a novel with four interwoven plots. "Anna Karenina" did this very well. This film did not pull off the magic as well as we could have hoped.

A professor leaves home when he finds his wife has a lesbian lover and along the way picks up a sexy escort (played by the ravishing Lacey Chabert). But this plot is full of such annoyances -- every time something cool is about to happen, it is stopped.

A nurse takes her patient away and kidnaps a girl to raise money. She even involves Meat Loaf (who, like his character in "Pelts", likes to kill raccoons). This has some potential, but is plagued by the fact it just doesn't make much sense. A nurse kidnapping someone? I guess, but it seems extreme.

The worst part is that the best character is the priest played by Billy Zane and Zane only shows up for a brief time (delivering some great lines). Had he appeared more often, the film would have been significantly improved. But we are left wanting.

And that's what it really came down to: a teaser with no satisfaction. Not enough Zane, not enough sex (especially with as much as they hint at) and a plot that ultimately seems more forced than fluid. I enjoyed the movie, but it was nothing special and certainly doesn't warrant a second viewing on my part. Maybe I missed something deeper, but I really doubt it.

"The Pleasure Drivers" is a mess.

The plot: What I can gather is that Daphne (Holly) kidnaps a woman who is connected to a powerful church run by Marvin (Zane). There's also a subplot involving a pretentious professor (Angus Macfadyen) and a sex addict (Lacey Chabert).

The biggest problem with the movie (and it's HUGE) is that absolutely nothing makes sense. The plot should've been laid out in a linear form. It's trying way too hard to be cool and "weird". The acting doesn't help either. Holly has a speech in the beginning of the movie that so off-key and overacted, you'll beg her to stop. Billy Zane has one scene, and it's the only good one. Meat Loaf, usually is fun to watch but his character is a big cliché. The movie moves at a glacial pace, with no snappy dialogue and even music to move it along.

One of the biggest bombs I've seen in a while, "The Pleasure Drivers" is a must-avoid.

OK, ummmm. Well, I got an advanced copy of the film and all I can say is that it was a pretty strange flick. The whole vibe was weird. Maybe I just couldn't relate to the characters. I feel like there was quite a bit of over acting and exaggeration. I don't was to get into specifics because some people may read this before seeing the movie. I gave 1 point for each hot chick in the movie, and 1 point for the movie being "different". If it wasn't SO weird, I would just say it was a terrible movie, but it was so strange, I had to keep watching to see how it ended. But NOT a good movie by any stretch, The person above who rated it "excellent" MUST somehow be connected to this film. Go ahead, watch the movie, then tell me who is closer to YOUR opinion.

" Pleasure Drivers?" Pleasure Drivers is a gut wrenching, nauseating, Horror Movie and just not what I was looking for at all. Google told me this was a very sexy movie with Lacy Chabert in it which is only partly true and only in a twisted, kinky, slasher kind of way. "Pleasure Drivers would have been more appropriately named "Can't Get No"; "There is no"; or "Epic Pleasure Fail ".

Pleasure Drivers is without a doubt the darkest movie I have seen in a while and it most certainly has nothing whatsoever to do with pleasure. My stomach hurt for hours after watching this movie. The story predicts a happy ending but in my opinion this happy ending exists only in a weird imaginary conspiracy theory kind of way.

Is the acting well done? Yes, I suppose you could say the actors did exactly what they were supposed to do. It's the story line I have a problem with. The movie jumps about in fits and jerks and I am not sure if we are flashing back to another time in history or moving forward ahead in time.

Only in the last half hour does the movie become more predictable, more understandable and you realize the classic horror that is about to happen as it unfolds.
