1 songwriting ...Bowie has talent...Slade has none, the pieces written for the movie are abysmal, the lyrics are the kind a teenage wannabe writes one night and tears up the next morning.
2 acting...dire in the extreme or should that be extreeeeeeeeme. McGregor two dimensional Jim Morrison/Iggy Pop amalgam (an awful piece of casting. Christian Bale worked hard but with no script and dismal direction had little to go on. Eddie Izzard was Eddie Izzard wiv a touch of Michael Caine thrown in. As to Slartybartfarst Meyers...yeuch!! Not remotely inspiring in the role.
3 direction ....lost and spiralling out of control from first frame
4 script ...see direction
5 costume and hair and makeup were quite lovely really even if a little anachronistic at times (also the early promo Brian Slade film short that was far too polished with expensive late 20 C. effects).
6 watch the movie if you can...I believe it important to understand the absolutely worst to appreciate the best.
