This film definitely takes you on a wild ride. I was buzzing after leaving the theatre. It's highly stylized - even somewhat cartoonish - and I don't know that I would say I loved the director's style all that much, actually. It was almost like one long music video, dipping and diving and looping back to previous scenes & voiceover dialogue. But even though it strikes you as a film that Tarantino would make, there was nothing derivative in Korine's vision. It was totally original. What elevated this movie to near-brilliance, however, was James Franco's amazing performance. I have been quite bored by him in recent years - but he's back with a vengence in this role. All the lead actresses knocked it out of the park, as well. Loved this film!
Pros great story, great actors, franco was brilliant
Yes, I recommend this movie.
