BRRRRRRRRR itz a cold movie! What a nutty fun movie flaws and all...Holly Hunter is so good-such deadpan delivery of some of the best insults I've heard in a long time.
However, what I really liked (once I realized what it was) were the pipes located inside Tiffany and Ted's apartment.
Robin is as always the master of his craft and plays the suffering travel agent brother perfectly.
Still in all a movie that needs to be seen if only for the inside pipes.
locked in an endless DVD loop...

What darkness as this film begins.
I ached for Toni Collete as she struggled in search. As this film moved through the characters that are it's story I understood it's greatness quickly. I was trapped and glued to the screen. I was hungry as each segment fed me more lost souls connected to each other. A brief ray of light still wrapped in pain towards the end made me try to smile but after the end I just sat there.I was stunned...grieving...sad...feeling like there were several people missing from my life.
I watched a great film and one that mattered. just go see it...

I enjoyed this film. I'm not sure what that may say about me but when it finally made it to the end it was surprisingly satisfying.Yes there were many flat moments and darkish comedy that didn't seem to work as well as it could have but still.............
Tcheky Karyo in a parody inept gangster role was just great.He really got it down- such a pro, such an overactor. His partner Dominique was just OUT THERE,high on death,crime,crazy to hurt and kill and loving his named family of guns- reminded me of Quentin Taratino in dusk to dawn. Just great/mean/born-to-die badness. Of course he makes no sense but his purpose is clear here.More guns that Smith and Wesson and I like it! Just don't let him treat your upset stomach!
Michel Muller as the poor victim of Myrtille Adoration (Was this Harold from Harold and Maude?) I am however,thankful that he becomes more of a presence as the story unfolds and I do share his adoration of Myrtille.He reveals the steel when he doubles the money! yeah!
Ahhhhh, Monica Bellucci.......... she is beautiful! Garbed in black and deadly to anyone in her way.And can she handle a fish! a well done scene. But what is she doing here in this film? Carrying the film perhaps? eye candy? whatever it worked for me.
I am not sure if I want to compare this to Dusk to Dawn or maybe Raising Arizona. Was it a comedy trying to be serious? just dark? or neither? I need to see it again to be sure.
By all means see it for yourself ....it deserves to be seen.
