Review of Southland Tales (2007) by Mark W — 23 Feb 2010

I tried to enjoy this movie the whole way through, but it was definitely not for me. I couldn't tell if it was a comedy, a thriller, or a drama, partially because Richard Kelly mixed them up to a confusing level and it was neither funny, thrilling, or dramatic.

The jokes seemed a bit childish and unnecessary, and the large number of recognizable actors don't seem to fit this fictional world. I suppose it might be for somebody out there, but it wasn't for me.
