Review of Good Dick (2008) by Denny R — 03 Mar 2012

Its genuinely hard to review this movie because it has a lot of good mixed with a lot of mediocre, and a touch of bad. Its kinda a mess of a movie. But it strikes a weird chord with people. Maybe its the indie, anti-romance styling that's refreshing in a movie lost in the sea of other predictable romantic comedies.

However, I think its the absurd, emotional angst each character conveys that seems so out there that, in my opinion, makes it real. The emotionally damaged are irrational. Somewhere, deep inside ourselves, we sympathize with these characters because we see a bit of that pain in ourselves.
