Review of The Hillz (2004) by Danny B — 03 Apr 2006
The back of the DVD states "Combining the grittines of 'Boyz In the Hood' and the flavor of TV's 'The O.C.' with a liberal dash of "A Clockwork Orange', here's a comedic pulse-pounding adventure on the hood's leaf-strewn streets.
" Right. This whole movie was a joke. Ridiculous characters doing stupid things, just to keep the plot going (what little of a plot there is). Surprisingly, the acting isn't horrifying. Paris is a joke, don't get me wrong, but she does do better than some of the main actors in this film.
I will say that this is a great unintentional comedy, and should be watched just to see how a movie shouldn't be made. Look for many reality TV cast members from 'Survivor', 'The Real World' and 'Beauty and the Geek'.
That is, if you can sit through the whole thing. A couple of my favorite scenes - Paris's crotch shot as she's getting into the pool, Paris's outfit at her friends funeral. Paris repeating the word 'fuck' three times in a dream sequence.
Classic shit.
