A fourth year film student with a chip on his/her shoulder will probably
tell you that this film is simple, uninspired, derivative, gratuitous.....
ignore him/her just like you always do and see this genuinely funny movie.
It has an inspired performance by Willem Dafoe and enough new ideas to
keep
you glued. The social commentary should probably be looked at as more
of
a plot device than intelligent thought, but I found myself watching this
movie repeatedly and enjoying it more the second and third time around.
This is definitely a naughty pleasure for the movie enthusiast.
