A no go for me and for a friend who co-starred in it later to find the poor taste in it all.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent cinematography and acting, December 4, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Checking Out (DVD)

This movie was really underated when it was released...the concept, direction (David Leland) and cinematography are all excellent. Jeff Daniels does a great job as the main character, and Allan Havey is hysterical as his best buddy. Look for a cameo appearance by David Byrne, of Talking Heads. Definitely worth checking out.

This was a superb film, seemingly about death but truly about life, it's there to be enjoyed, much like this film (sorry that sounds so cheesy but thats a fact)
