| User ReviewAndrea Bnice as any hollywood or indie film should be to remember them ;) |
| User ReviewDouglas PA unique movie. When it seems that Hollywood can't come up with an original idea, something like this comes along. It is silly and brilliant. |
| User ReviewMelanie HVery funny movie, again David Bowie is a great actor. |
| User ReviewMariah JSo funny, a great comedy. It's definitely original and the characters and situations are sure to have you laughing. Brilliant performances by everyone, this film is underrated. |
| User ReviewJo SDavid bowie *sighs* ^__^ I wanted to see what David Bowie was like at acting without the singing so I got this movie and I enjoyed it. It's a good story and David Bowie I would just say he's himself. It's quite funny at times too ^__^ |
| User ReviewChristine PFunny, cheesy, and just a all around great movie. |
| User ReviewLara BIt seems like nobody has ever seen or heard of this movie, which is a crying shame! It's quirky and funny and has great dialogue...and Bowie! Don't forget, it's got Bowie! If I know you in real life and you want to watch it, I'll loan you my copy (it's REALLY hard to find) or watch it with you, because you must see it! Really! |
| User ReviewJason FA film to make you vomit on yourselves with excitement! Thank you, Gina, for introducing me to this quirky forgotten gem. |
| User ReviewElise NThis movie is one of my favorites! I could quote its fantastic one liners all day! David Bowie is spectacular as Monty the gambler/ grifter, and Rosanna Arquette is brilliant as Lucy the wannabe escape artist who worships Harry Houdini. The surrealist restaraunt Dali's provides the perfect backdrop to this ridiculous story. it's all so funny! See it! |
| User ReviewSean WNot many people know about this movie but it is really good and David Bowie is amazing and charming as always! |
