    Beautiful, amazing

    This is the best movie i've ever seen, EVER. Period. If i have nothing else in life, i know I have this movie. If i was stuck on a deserted island and could only pick 5 movies to bring, all five would be this movie. I've never watched a movie that's so intelligent, funny, and good-natured all in one. Honestly, this is the epitome of perfect cinema. It will never get better than this.

    The Golden Ding-Dong of a Bar Star

    First and foremost, I personally want to thank Donnie Pintron for showing me the ways of the bass. Throughout this intellectual movie I have reconsidered my very religion itself, all so I could feed from the nipple of Donnie Pintron. Before this movie, I could not properly understand the language of the Gods. I now drink 40 Taurines a day because it is the nectar of the Gods. I have now achieved inner peace with myself and I will ascend to Nirvana (where Kurt Cobain lies.) where I hope that I, too, will become a Bar Star. This movie isn't just about finding your religion. It is about embracing that you will never, ever have a smarter movie than this. Every time you watch this movie, you learn more and more about yourself. This movie takes away your fragile virginity again, and again, and again, and you simply let it. The characters are the most fleshed out characters I have ever seen in a movie. Ever. You have Donnie. You have the megaphone man. The awkward main character. Douglass. The guy who speaks in weird speeches that are supposed to be deep but just confuse you further. Small mouth man, or as the movie calls him - surfer dude. When you see these characters in action, there is nothing that can compare. The utter chemistry alone between these characters is so fluent, you feel like you're actually there. But then you realize this is the movie of the Gods, and your presence cannot ascend to such a higher plane of existence. Donnie Pintron could punch me and I would personally thank him myself, granted he allows me VIP access. He's a sex god whose nipples are the work of Jesus himself and that has a penis made of gold, which is totally not at all a bluff and is 100% real. Someday, I do hope that my children, and their children, and their children's children will know the legacy that is this movie. This movie is a religious relic, something you must past down generation to generation. When humanity has become extinct, this is the movie that will be the last reminder of the homosapien race. I'm looking forward to the sequel, Bar Starz II: The Next Generation.

    Classic, must see movie

    People will tell you that this movie is cringy and bad and they are wrong. The storyline is a little convoluted but it just works. Bar Starz is a classic early 00s movie with a vibe that cannot be replicated today. An amazing performance by Jon Bernthal as Donnie Pintron really sets this movie apart. Such a memorable character will have you feeling the bass everytime you reach for a can of Taurine.

    A Beautiful Film

    Never has a movie resonated with me as much as Bar Starz. Truly, this movie has changed my life. It has impacted me on a deeply spiritual level. Every time I'm faced with a challenge, I ask myself, "What would Donnie Pintron do?" I would recommend this movie to anyone. No, I would recommend this movie to everyone. Do yourself a favour and watch it.

    Cinematic Masterpiece!

    This film is absolutely top tier. It's definitely an early 2000s CLASSIC, easily. While this film has a strong plot and premise, Jon Bernthal's performance for his character "Donnie Pintron" somehow advances this film into something of a masterpiece. This film succeeds many levels such as the script, costumes, characters, and jokes. Making this film desirable to rewatch continuously. Not only is this a feel good, laughter fulfilled piece, it's something that also pulls at your emotions in the best possible ways. This film has only inspired me to live out the rest of my days trying to be as absolutely amazing and COOL as Donnie Pintron. This character is the epitome of cool. Donnie Pintron has easily become my all time favorite character with the outstanding performance Bernthal gave. Give this film a watch, you will be absolutely amazed and perhaps this will become a favorite for you as well. The only complaint I have is that I cannot buy this on dvd! A travesty! But past that, this is again, top tier. Donnie Pintron, you have my heart!
