Featured reviews
This film tells the story of a poet who lives a very hedonistic life in Florida.
I can't believe what I just watched. The characters are unlikable, and even repulsive. Their behaviour is consistently reckless and irresponsible. They live wasted lives, and they wasted my life too. The film is truly horrid, even though there are so many big names in it.

This movie is beautifully broken. It is strange, disjointed and like trying to recollect the events after a 10 day binged on the beach.
It's wild, weird and very pretty in its own way. A complete mess that somehow makes sense.
I definitely recommend sticking through it at least once.
I love every actor and actress in this movie....but....uh wow this is awful
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.
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.
