Review of SLC Punk (1998) by Defame — 30 Apr 2021
MY FAVORITE MOVIE!
SLC Punk is my favorite movie. I missed it in the theater, but bought it on VHS as soon as it came out and after I made the jump to DVD and had worn out the tape, I picked up the disc. Matthew Lillard is one of the few actors who can get me to a screen just because he's in something, and this is his finest work. I enjoy the fresh dialog, often delivered as asides, (I've always enjoyed asides) and the subtle jokes paying homage to John Hughes, Spinal Tap etc. The entire film is essentially Stevo(Lillard) building a case, attourney style, for himself to grow up and abandon his old beliefs, which he slowly realizes are no longer his.
