Facade was a very rare flim i wish they would make more movies like this. The movie is very funny the way they display the actors is just the best i have seen since Gattaca (1997) the plot to this is very smart and funny at times i think this is a must see movie i don't know why this was never in the theaters i think people would have really liked it this is defently worth the money go out and rent it you won't regret it.

1.0 out of 5 stars An absolute waste of time and money, December 14, 1999

By	Alexander Raymond (San Diego, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. It made no sense; it was not funny; the dialog was vulgar nonsense (not that I object to "adult language" when it is appropriate). Don't waste your time or money: too much has been wasted on this POS already.

5.0 out of 5 stars Harrowing, Hysterical Emptiness, January 25, 2001

By	Gary Paolini (Oakland, CA United States) - See all my reviews

Recommending this film outright may cost moderate karma and so I must clear the air up front with a warning about emptiness. Everybody feels emptiness, and that includes directors, producers and writers. Emptiness is the motor of this film, it's raison d'etre; to enjoy it, one needs a comfortable relationship with emptiness--not just one's own, one also needs a willingness to indulge the emptiness of others.

If you're smart and post-hip, you'll love this movie, particularly if you live in or have resided in California. In one scene, the dialogue of the actors is drowned out by the drone of a passing jet engine. Marvelous, mind-warbling timing througout, and a cast of actors who all seem to be of the same nervous, half-starved c-list agency. One cannot dismiss the vision of their collective sketchy thinness and lusty smile.

It's Malibu exploitation in the tradition of "Valley of the Dolls"--and without a single bare breast, the movie exudes a wonderful, tight-underwear sexuality.

Rating, 5 of 5 if filing under Cult, Midnite of Wowie, or Hooterfudge.
