5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely unbelievable movie., December 26, 2001

This review is from: Blowin' Smoke (DVD)

This is a movie I can watch over & over without ever getting bored. At first, I when I watched it, I found it enjoyable in something of a Mallrats sort of way, mainly because Steve Zahn just blows you away with his humor & stories.

But it is greater than that. The depression that Josh Hamilton is going through is very strong & very real. He is apathetic about most everything, and floats around with his post relationship depression, but does care strongly for his friends Nicole & Freak.

This movie is hypnotic. You find yourself thinking about it long after having seen it. The humor is amazing & it is brilliantly human.

This review is from: Blowin Smoke [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Don't judge a movie by its' cover or its' title. This is very appropriate for this movie. The girl on the front cover is not in the movie and the story isn't a stoner flick, although there is some drug and alcohol usage in the movie (the conversations and views after some consumption of whacky-tobacky and some beer is really funny in this movie, though). This movie was also titled "Freak Talks About Sex" and rightfully so.

For anyone who has recently graduated college (maybe even high school) and is a little lost in direction they want to take in life, can relate to this movie. This is a very laid back movie with funny stories, quotes, interactions with past students, and views about life after college.

Only down point about the movie is that there is some missing information in the plot and its' direction and the story ends sort-of ambiguously (but is this the way the director wanted to leave you feeling; like the main character?). But after all, this is an indie flick. Overall, a cool movie to watch anytime with anyone. The soundtrack for the movie is pretty cool too. Check it out, very worthwhile.

owasco entertainment. you've got to love that. especially if you're an ex-owasco owl. i've never seen a movie that better captures the melancholy of growing up in a small town in cny better than this. this is the best transition from bitter-sweet teen movies into early twenties angst movies you could imagine!!
