Review of The Brown Bunny (2003) by Craigb — 23 Oct 2005
Truly a disappointing film. I really enjoyed Gallo's last one, Buffalo '66, so I would like to be able to say that the 10 minutes of exposition that we got at the end of the film justified making us sit through the first 80 minutes which consists mostly of Vincent Gallo driving around looking glum.
For me, the "revelation" that we get at the end of this tiresome affair does nothing to make his characters interesting and it comes off felling like a cheap trick to get us to care about a character that he never bothered to develop.
Still, he gets points for style: I do like his camera work.
