I haven't met too many people who dislike Dead Man. Perhaps it's one of those "I guess you had to be there" things. Definitely not for the ADHD generation. I recently saw Cloud Atlas. For a 5-hour-long mindfuck it's pretty okay.

I should really watch Dead Man again. I saw it three years ao before my film taste developed and was just bored. I like you guys so I'll give it another shot. It's on Hulu Plus so at least it'll be a free watch.
FANTASTIC. I loved it. Kevin Bacon was hilarious and the script was deserving of its Oscar nomination. I do however wish it had a better ending. It just seemed weak compared to the rest of the film. I have a core group of friends that I still hang out with since high school so I connected on the commradery that was shown throughout. Also, Mickey Rourke looked ike a normal person once. 8.5/0 One of the worst movies I've ever seen, but in an awesome way. Hilarious movie with great one liners. I haven't been that entertained in a while. "I just ate shaving cream." "Yeah well once in a while you gotta eat shaving cream." Brilliant. 2/10 on a serious level 10/10 on a hilarious level |

I didn't notice the soundtrack too much, just the same couple chords recycled over and over after every single scene. A lot of the scenes are perfunctory, having iggy pop guest star sounds neat but it added absolutely nothing except his likeness and name in credits. I have no problem with Jarmusch making a film for himself, i just didn't care for it. The native american character seemed like something out of a disney film. |
