Swingers (1996)

Third Greatest Movie of all time

[12 April 2001]

Behind:

Godfather II and Apocalypse Now

Not much more to say then what has already been posted. I personally am in love with this film due to the honest and relatible dialogue, humor and dimension to the characters. This movie is not original in plot or deep in meaning, but it does not try to be so; what is does do is show a slice of life of guys who could be or I would want to be my friends.

54 (1998)

So disappointed..

[2/10 · 11 October 1998]

This is the second worst, and most disappointing film I've seen this year. With such a great potential given the history of the club, it's well know patrons, and the endless possibility of storylines, the film is wasted on ficticious characters and their moronic, boring storylines. I knew the that the film was bad, when the only references to real people were those who were deceased (Steve Rubel, Andy Warhol, Truman Capote). My guess that every person associated with the movie still living threatened to sue if the were portrayed. Forget this movie, and catch the "Behind the Music" documentary of Studio 54 on VH1. It is much, much better.
