Review of MacArthur Park (2001) by Girl-Melody L — 31 Jul 2009

MacArthur Park is a stunning and horrifyingly real look at individual's lost in their own drug-scoring world. The film is not for the faint at heart and is really very violent when considering the film is made to portray real life homeless drug addiction.

Most of the character's display enough amusing human emotions and relationships so the film isn;t a complete downer.

The dialogue has plenty of "well, once I get out of here" thoughts and you definately feel that is the true addict mentality.

Overall, very good movie without any frills that makes you cringe that there are so many lives lost in this manner.
