Leave your thoughts about Jimmy Hollywood.
| Hartford CourantMalcolm JohnsonLevinson plays wryly on the way actors, even those without work, live their roles. |
| NewsweekDavid AnsenYou keep rooting for Jimmy Hollywood, because it has the bittersweet, unexpected flavors of a personal vision. It may not be Hollywood's idea of a socko entertainment, but, unlike many a hit, it follows you home. |
| User ReviewMichael MHilarious movie!!!!!! My all time favorite Joe Pesci movie!! |
| User ReviewTina NPretty cool movie i think its cool how he wanted ot end it, i also thought it was sweet how they thought he was a terrorist i htink he was a pretty cool guy and what he did was the right thing to do...Go vigilante! |
| User ReviewJames MNice little find in Blockbuster this. Don't recall too much about it but remember really liking the ending. |
| User ReviewDaniel MIt's rather low-budget, but Joe Pesci is always good. Definitely worth a watch, but don't go in expecting Pesci at his best. |
| User ReviewC. HNot the best film, kind of no story line to it. |
| User ReviewMitch SOnly notable for how much Joe Pesci looks like Greg "The Hammer" Valentine. Really dumb caper movie disguised as an insider Hollywood picture. (C-) |
| User ReviewMike ONot much to see here - basically a disappointment for all involved. |
| User ReviewDave Rjoe pesci plays a guy desperate to make it in hollywood but is frustrated by his inability to do so. he longs for the golden age of hollywood when people could break into films easier - he imagines himself hanging out with james cagney and edwin g. robinson. so desperate is he for fame he decides to take on the role of spokesman for a nonexistent vigilante group... the film just seems to be addressing the phenomenon of "media whoredom" - as i'll call it - that surrounds us now. it's funny that "natural born killers" came out around the same time and addressed the same basic phenomenon. these days with the internet and smart phones these movies seem tame. pesci's character isn't without it's charm and nor is slater's - an actor i generally don't like -but the plot isn't strong enough for the hour and 45 minutes that it runs. |
