Review of Boogie Nights (1997) by Kj P — 13 Oct 2012
"Boogie Nights" is a film that you can very easily become invested in, and I was enthralled for, most of the film. The story of Dirk Diggler going from a bus boy/dish washer to a famous porn star was a great story to watch, and it was written wonderfully well, but there are some portions of the film when I felt like they were trying too hard, because it started to drag on a bit, showing too much porn scenes, and I know that was the point of the film, but the end of the film suggests otherwise.
I just wish the contrast of porn and drugs was a little more balanced out. The film is impeccably shot and the acting is terrific. I highly enjoyed watching "Boogie Nights," and even though it is definitely not a film for everyone, a film fan will be drooling over the images and how well it is shot.
Great film!
