"Directed by Alex Proyas "

An average movie

“Alex Proyas is known to be an expert on Fantastic/Science-Fiction flicks but this time, he tried to do something completely different, a comedy about a garage band. The end result was ok but not much more than that. It is rather well done but there is really nothing new, original or remotely exciting about it. Still, if you want to see something else from Proyas, it is well worth a look.” read more

Parsimonious Prick Show!

“On bitnik punk:

This gloriously comedic flick is about an amateur Aussie band who tries so hard to get a record deal and when they finally had the chance to do so, their suck-o-meter reaches nirvana.

Joe (Stiller), the lead guitarist, is a deluded freak who, in the beginning, is with Kate (Stange) who gets pregnant with Joe’s baby. But then Joe turns out to be the most parsimonious prick who affords to have a sexual affair with a suicidal queen named Scarlet, who later turns out to be Joe’s bogus sex mate. Moreover, Lucy (Sadrina) is the band’s devilish drummer who works at a pharmacy, does concoctions that produce more vomit than being high. If you put these punks to” read more

“A great soundtrack, cinematography was alright and the story line was ok but it didn't do anything for me. The characters didn't do anything for me either and as a matter of fact I'm now left with the belief that Pia Miranda can't really act and is on the annoying side. I also felt all the attempts at humour weren't successful and that the only mildly amusing part of the film was the Fun With Drugs Part 2 and even that was pushing it. Shame really because it had potential as a story.” read more
