Candied Nostalgia through and through. This was made to be a cash register. Anyone tells you otherwise is a lair. It's shiny and fun and all the things you might hope to relive the glory days. Twelve to Sixteen hour benders bouncing over floating bricks, taking shrooms for power ups and generally wasting life's most precious asset. Time. But the game was fun and the movie plays with that same sense of creative world building. Blowing up the narrative of…

Dinner in America 2020
First impressions can make or break a film like this. The central character is incredibly abrasive in tone and ideology. And I wouldn’t be surprised at all if people can’t endure the narrative climb it takes to invest themselves in Director Rehmeier’s micro view of society’s fringe trash, slash unworthy contributors. But let me just say this has cult classic written all over it. And if you are willing to step outside your cinematic consumption comfort zone you will find a diamond in the rough.

Flat out, that is one messed up bunch! They pushed all there chips to the center of the table a long time ago. Trouble is, they ain't never had the cards even worth anteing up for let alone taking this thing down the river. Matthew McConaughey went nuclear on his rom com leading man persona with this one. What was his inspiration? Grim Reaper version of a ladies man. Bloody Hell! - He's still my favorite Texan.
Just another day at the office for William Friedkin though.

He simply wouldn’t take hold of his life’s dream without raising his friends hand as an equal victor. Only a few men in the world even have the kind of elite…

Have you ever been in love with someone and they choose a path which seems completely out of character? It comes crashing into your life with all it’s intentions leaving you helpless to do anything about it. You gave your heart to this person and perhaps you deserve understanding. But it’s not a place that you can find your way back to, even by some miracle. The earth has come apart and the divide much too great, leaving you stranded…
