Review of Hollywoodland (2006) by Aimie M — 01 Jun 2008

Well made but familiar, Hollywoodland trundles the same filmic formula seen countless times already. From a production point of view - there isn't too much to fault, but the major problem comes through its lack of taking risks.

Had the film stepped outside of its boundaries then it could have rocked the audience harder, but in its finalised state it acts as a mere reflection. We see, watch, and are entertained, but ultimately - we don't care for these characters.
