Genius. Moron. Is there a difference? This movie is a hideous waste of celluloid - or any other medium, for that matter. The story was not well thought out at all, as Lommel has admitted. Lommel claimed that this was a legitimate film and not a cover for a cocaine smuggling operation. After watching it, I think anyone would wonder if that could possibly have been the case. I think that any B-movie director who has ever walked up to someone and said, "I have an idea for a film, the story and script are contained in my hand-held cassette recorder and we should start filming next weekend at Andy Warhol's house," should be shot...and not with a camera.

One Last Dance
(2003)
Lost In Translation
26 December 2005
Overall, I enjoyed this film. It is a movie musical, but instead of breaking into song, the performers break into dance. This film was very well written and directed. I, however, feel that it doesn't translate well from stage to screen (I wish that I had been able to see the stage production). Or maybe the world just isn't ready for such a progressive method of storytelling. The Complexions dancers are wonderful and Lisa Niemi, Patrick Swayze and George de la Peña are superb dancers. The acting is certainly adequate and, at times, deeply moving. I recommend this movie to anyone with a dance background or an interest in non- traditional films.
