5.0 out of 5 stars Maybe too deep..., March 20, 2006

...for the average movie fan. I loved this masterpiece. It was forceful and subtle at the same time. From the priest's role in helping everyone to Bananas slowly becoming more...AND less of a clown through the different stages of his "makeup". Not an easy film to watch...but harder to stop watching ...again and again.

just by looking at the cover of the movie & it being Steve Buscemi u know its going to a good movie. i had no idea what this movie was about when i first saw it. its about a father & how he never knew his son needed a kidney transplant and that night he gets a page from the hosp saying the have found a donor & before he gets to the hosp, the donor who is an insane drug addic escapes & with he help of some strangers he just meets. they look for the man to save his son's life. its just really good. it has few funny parts. this movie is very unique. i love how they play the piano music during the movie. i love this movie

2.0 out of 5 stars Holy depressing!, November 5, 2004

I couldn't even finish watching this film. I wanted to slit my wrists. This film gave me a sick feeling inside.

I don't understand why most Indie flicks have to be terribly composed. Just cause the film was made for cheap doesn't mean it has to look cheap. Here's a tip to all indie flick directors: Hand held camerawork does not create a sense of reality. For me it just takes away from the realism. A shakey camera only reminds people that there's a camera there and that they're watching a movie. The hand held thing only works successfully if performed by people who have mastered hand held camerawork. Stop trying to pass off inexperience as art. People don't fall for it anymore.

I was looking so forward to seeing this film. This is just sloppy film making. I'm sorry but I guess I can't just look past all that. It has to be a really incredible story for me to sit through something like this. Unfortunetly the story here is incredibly depressing and not portrayed well by it's players. I don't think any of the actors in this film really know how to properly portray these types of characters. Characters in a story like this should never be portrayed by actors. They're too real to be portrayed by actors. I'm sorry but all I saw was famous supporting actors acting. It was sad affair and an insult to people who have real problems simular to the characters in this film.

This film would have been better off not being made at all.
