Movie Reviews

Chicago Reader - 8/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumA painful attempt to satirize the making of rock videos that runs aground with a puerile plot and bombastic, self-infatuated delivery.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt's the kind of harmless breezy film that's easy to take on late night cable TV when you don't feel like using your noodle.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Richard HarringtonThe irony is that nothing Fishman and his cohorts have come up with is really as funny as a two-hour slice of MTV itself.
New York Times - 4/10 by Janet MaslinThe amiable screenplay by Mr. Fishman and Peter McCarthy is often funny, and never worse than silly.
User Review - 10/10 by Pearl WJust made the move here from livejournal. I like it much better. Mostly because it's movie-centered, and doesn't have any other crap I don't care about. Who gives a shit what song I'm listening to while I write this? [font=Microsoft Sans Serif] And I can change the [/font][font=Impact]font [/font][font=Times New Roman]so easily. [/font][font=Book Antiqua]Yes, much more user friendly. I like this a lot more. [/font] [font=Palatino Linotype]Trying out different fonts now. [/font][font=Trebuchet MS]What do you think of this one? [/font][font=Georgia]Or this? I kind of like Georgia. [/font] [font=Georgia]I gave "Tapeheads" a 10 because, even though the film tries too hard and still misses the oddball satiric tone it aims for, it shows Tim Robbins at his most adorable. Even production designer Catherine Hardwicke cooed "aww... baby Tim" on the DVD commentary when he removes his glasses in the movie for the first time. Yes, he looks [i]that[/i] cute.[/font] [font=Georgia]"Tapeheads" also stars John Cusack. You forget that Tim's height (6'4") makes everyone else look short, even Cusack at 6'2".[/font]
User Review - 10/10 by Ken COne of the great overlooked gems of late 80s independent film. Cusack and Tim Robbins and a well-placed Ted Nugent cameo only begin to show why this should be seen by those in the know. "Am I crying?" Mo Fuzz asks. Yes, from laughter.
User Review - 10/10 by FilmGrinder SLove it or hate it type of flick. "Let's get into trouble, baby."-Mo Fuzz (Don Cornelius)
User Review - 10/10 by Adam RI love this movie! Granted this isn't for everyone but for me and my group of friends, this was/is a cult classic. It's a silly film, take it for what it's worth and the time at which it was made.
User Review - 10/10 by Adrienne KAwesome, super quotable movie. I liked it extra much because it reminded me of one of my favorite movies --> Diva (1981)
User Review - 10/10 by Aj VI love this movie, and it's virtually unheard of! It has two big stars: Tim Robbins and John Cusack, as two unemployed friends who start a music video production company, and the craziness that occurs along the way. It's really fun and entertaining, and very funny. It's one of my favourite movies from 88.
