The Beach Bum

I love every actor and actress in this movie....but....uh wow this is awful

I've seen people write that they expected a comedy. Even if labelled that way, this movie wasn't that. I knew guys like this (just not rich) back in the 70s. A lot of them you would meet, spend some time with, and they would just move on. The music fits the 70-80s era better. This movie seems to be more of an "expression" of a certain character you might run into.

There is no real success or failure to this movie, it's just there . I think that if you go into it with expectations of something else you probably won't enjoy it.

I wish this movie was an hour shorter. The pastel and neon dizzying hedonism is artfully directed. However, when the film's pace begins to slow, it's like the lights coming on in a club. The characters then become annoying and boring, the plot holes more obvious, and the movie excruciatingly boring. The end is an interesting homage to KLF.

So many bad reviews? Heard of an arthouse film? Seen any other movies by Harmony Korine? Enjoy an awesome soundtrack? Enjoy top notch sceneray/directing? Jimmy Buffet or a Snoop fan? With a hillarious script.. the Martin Lawrence dolphins scene is a highlight amongst many.. do urself a favour, if you can watch a movie and not take it so seriously you are in for a treat!! Moondog rocks on!!

Wow, this movie was terrible. Nothing redeeming, interesting or entertaining unless you like to watch MM playing a drunk stoner. I guess, he's a believable stoner, as is Snoop, but there's basically no story. Just scene after scene of drinking and toking. Arthouse garbage.
